Rare Rutherglen Topaque

Pfeiffer Rare Rutherglen Topaque is made with Muscadelle grapes harvested towards the end of the growing season, ensuring sugar levels are high.

The grapes are crushed into static fermenters where they cold soak for three days. Fermentation is only just allowed to begin before the juice is pressed into stainless steel tanks.

It is then fortified with a neutral grape spirit and clarified. The resulting sweet wine is transferred to various barrels and casks, most parcels kept separate with only certain selections blended. The parcels mature for 3-30 years.

The ageing process produces the wine's rich, complex flavours. Pfeiffer's oldest and best parcels of Muscadelle are included in the final blend, which has an average age of 25 years.

Dark brown black, Pfeiffer Rare Rutherglen Topaque is rich, luscious and complex with abundant chocolate and malt flavours. Fully matured, it is ready to drink on release.
