If the world of home barrels and blending fortified wines is new to you, or you are not quite sure what to top your barrel with, our Liquid Luxury samples are the perfect place to start. We offer two ways to sample the range. Choose one of our sample boxes for an easy guided tasting, or build your own selection using individual sample bottles. Sample bottles are available across our full range of Muscats, Topaques, Tawnys, and White Fortified, so you can mix and match, run bench trials at home, or simply try before you commit to larger volumes. Sample box options Muscat Sample Box includes 250ml each of our Standard, Premium, and Deluxe Muscat. Topaque and White Fortified Sample Box includes 250ml each of our Standard, Premium, and Deluxe Topaque, plus 250ml of our White Fortified. Barrel Blend and Tawny Sample Box includes 250ml each of our Standard Barrel Blend, Premium Tawny, and Deluxe Tawny. You can purchase multiple sample boxes at once. If you would like to try the full range, select all sample box options to receive one of each.If you are wanting to try our specialised blends you will need to add these on as single bottles as they are not included in the sample box. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN STANDARD, PREMIUM, DELUXE AND SPECIALTY BLENDS? 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.
