This Grand Old Tawny first attracts the senses with rich hazelnut and subtle dark chocolate on the nose, following up with beautifully balanced vibrant brown spice and smooth vanilla flavours, leaving a lingering trail of chocolate to enthral your palate. A must with rich chocolate desserts, raspberry torte or Stilton cheese. For me, a splash of Tawny in a balloon glass makes for the perfect ending to a busy day. Appreciate now or age up to 10-15 years, where the extra maturity will only enhance your enjoyment.

Colour: With it’s burnt bronze colour and light mahogany tinges, the Dark Angel with age will lighten in colour.
Bouquet: Soft traces of cigars and rich dark chocolate notes with dried prune and sundried currant.
Taste: Silky caramel with overtones of fig jam and a touch of toffee. A lingering palate due to great depth of dried fruit flavor and great balance.
Ageing: The fruit was picked ultra ripe (19 baume) and concentrates in the beautiful warm Australian climate to produce an ultra luscious and generous wine. The fermentation is short (1-3 days), and fortified with premium spirit to stop fermentation and retain natural grape sweetness. This tawny has spent many years carefully maturing in big format oak (2500L- 5000L barrels) in the cellar.
Food matches: The Dark Angel has deep inviting aromas and flavours. It is ideal on its own, or with cheeses, dried fruits or pate.
