04 Vintage Fortified

04vintagefortified

The team at Stanton and Killeen always approach this time of the year with a great deal of anticipation.

The release of a new vintage fortified is a time of immense pride as we share with fellow wine lovers another fine example of the unique style we are known for. The 2004 is a complex blend of six different grape varieties including four from Portugal together with the traditional shiraz and durif.

We believe the 2004 shows great promise and this has been confirmed by the awarding of 8 gold medals across various national wine shows over the past five years.

Vintage Club members will receive their allocation in the second week of November.

"Stanton and Killeen have set the pace with their development of the new Australian ‘vp style'. This one has all the hallmarks of that progression. It's sweet with an attractive spicy lift, there's plenty of
flavour but it's not heavy in the mouth. The components are there, all that's needed is time."
