Wine Tasting Note: Stanton & Killeen Liqueur Muscat, NV, Rutherglen, Australia.This was dragged out of the cellar for a possible contender for Wine Blogging Wednesday. No idea how long it had been down there although if the label is anything to go by (It won a Gold Medal in the International Wine Challenge 1993) is must date from 1994.
Served chilled (which brings out a delicate rose-petal touch to the aroma and flavour) or at room temperature (which makes it more port-like with richness and depth) it is delicious. Serve on its own or with chocolate desserts, blue-cheeses or rich fruit cake; lovely.
Scribblings Rating - 94/100
Rutherglen muscats are graded according to quality. This is not the top (Classic) level that gains all the press coverage but the Liqueur standard - which in my book offers superb value.

Hate to be picky, but Classic is actually the second of four quality levels with "Rare" being the top.
Rutherglen Muscat
Classic Rutherglen Muscat
Grand Rutherglen Muscat
