Premium Aged Range (500mL)
LiebichWein is as famous for its fortifieds as it is for its reds.
Muscat

wine with voluminous Muscato Gordo character. This 8 year old retains some youthfulness in the blend and is enjoyable drinking at any time.

Alcohol: 17%.
Frontignac
Tasting Notes:A blended rare red frontignac wine that skilfully balances 20 year old
barrel aged with younger unwooded wine showcases luscious aged charcters of burnt honeyed toffee with aromatic floral musk and exquisite flavours.

Semillon
Tasting Notes: A particular favorite of ours! The old barrel aging over 10 years provides a unique
'burnt' honeyed toffee character. Ideal as an after dinner drink. May also be served chilled
Alcohol: 18%.
Tawny
Tasting Notes: Forgetful aging in wood amongst the cobwebs for 15 years
has resulted in a concentration of flavours and sugar with excellent rancio and
tawny characteristics. Predominantly Grenache, with a touch of Mataro and Semillon.
Alcohol: 18%.

Tasting Notes: Dark blackberry, aniseed and warm spicy aromas
capture the essence of ripe Barossa Shiraz, complimented by the added brandy spirit.
Alcohol: 18.5%.
Cellar: This wine will age for up to 20 years into an unforgettable fortified experience -
if you can wait that long!
