James Halliday
Review Date: 07/2012Has elected to remain outside the four-tier Rutherglen Classification structure; has a vast haul of awards, mainly from overseas wine competitions. There is a lightness of touch to the wine that is most appealing, with spice and raisin aromas and flavours to the fore, and without heating the finish.

Notes
Established as a family winery back in 1921, the Bullers continue to this day to produce incredible fortified wines from the historic Rutherglen region. The wines are not only steeped in history, but also get rapturous acclaim from the world's top critics in recognition of their stunning quality and outrageous value. As with most wines of this style, the solera method is utilized for consistency and balance of flavors combining youthful purity with aged complexity and rancio notes to die for. Basically, this decadent style of wine combines the floral notes and sweetness of a late harvest Muscat with the richness, nuttiness and rancio barrel-aged characters of tawny port or even sherry, along with a lovey spice and kick from the fortifying brandy. It is selected from a solera that has been in rotation for decades and the flavors are beautifully married. If you haven't experienced one of these legendary Rutherglen dessert wines, this is a real classic with which to get started!
