Previously known as Tokay before the EU naming restrictions were enforced, this wine is the foundation of the Topaque range. It is made from the Muscadelle grape variety. A beautiful golden colour with aromas of lemon and quince. A silky palate of honey, malt, lemon and very light butterscotch. The Standard is the lightest and youngest of our range of Topaque. The flavours and colour gain in intensity as the wine ages. This tier is great for people who have a very old blend in their barrel and need a nice dose of youth and freshness. Standard Topaque is part of the standard range with an average age of 2-3 years.Choosing your next top up? Try a sample bottle first and find the one that hits the spot.

Our Standard fortified is approximately 2 to 3 years old, fresh and versatile. It is a great starting point for a new barrel, or for adding a lift of bright, youthful flavour. Premium is approximately 3 to 4 years old and offers a little more depth. It suits those who love a drink now style, or anyone wanting a head start on building a more mature blend. Deluxe is approximately 4 to 5 years old and is the most developed option in our core range. It is ideal for brand new barrels, or for quickly adding extra age, richness, and complexity. Our Specialty Blends are designed for customers who want to go further. They are for very established barrels, or for blends that have outgrown the Standard, Premium, and Deluxe range and need older, more distinctive material to keep evolving. These include parcels of varying ages and styles, as well as occasional single variety offerings to add interest, structure, and new life to your blend. If you are unsure what your barrel needs, we recommend booking a blending consultation with our winemaker, either in person at the winery or online via Zoom. Please note that Zoom consultations require you to send a sample to the winemaker ahead of your appointment. You can do so here.
