Our old vines Muscat Ottonel produces beautiful aromas and flavours that cry out to be preserved. Barrel-aged spirit distilled from Hillside wine is added to halt the fermentation in an older French oak barrel. Aging over 20 months integrated the spirit and fruit profiles beautifully, and a bit of fortified merlot adds a fun twist. The sweetness level is 6.5, or 65 g/l of residual sugar.
