Description
Bethany Old Quarry is made from the traditional Barossa Tawny varieties- Grenache and Shiraz, harvested late in the season to achieve maximum ripeness and complexity. After fortification with premium grape spirit the wine is aged in old oak casks for an average of ten years.Tasting Note
The bouquet displays intense raisin and nutty rancio characters which carry on to the mellow, dried fruit palate. The lingering finish is rich and full of flavour, with pleasant, well-integrated tannins.Product Reviews

This is a fine example of a uniquely Australian sweet wine- very sweet indeed- that comes from the Barossa Valley. Made from Grenache and Shiraz grapes, the fermentation is stopped by the addition of grape spirit so as to keep as much of the natural fruit sugars as possible. It's then aged in wood. To me it has a taste of slightly burnt raisins and dark brown sugar, there's dark toffee too and even a suggestion of coffee. Great with mince pies.
