A benchmark Australian fortified: opulent, sweet Muscat matured in ancient oak casks for luscious complexity and length.

Description
McWilliam’s Wines, one of Australia's most historic and decorated family-owned producers, has long been celebrated for its commitment to quality and innovation.
The Show Reserve Liqueur Muscat is a blend of select parcels, matured in seasoned French oak barrels to achieve a harmonious balance between freshness and complexity. The result is a wine that offers a rich tapestry of flavours, with notes of raisins, fruitcake spices, and a hint of rancio character.
It presents a glowing amber hue with a khaki rim in the glass. The nose is lush, revealing aromas of soaked raisins, nutmeg, and cinnamon. On the palate, it is silky and voluptuous, delivering concentrated flavours of raisin, mocha, dark chocolate, and a touch of green olive. The wine's zesty acidity balances its sweetness, leading to a long, lingering finish.
This liqueur Muscat is best enjoyed as a contemplative after-dinner drink, perhaps paired with a strong coffee or a selection of aged cheeses. Its depth and complexity also make it a fitting companion to rich desserts or simply savoured on its own.
