Morris Classic Liqueur Muscat NV
- Sweet, opulent
- Rutherglen
It’s a bit wintry. Comfort food is the way to go. After dinner, you sit around the Coonara and watch a movie or play a game. What should be in your glass? This of course! Morris is one of the masters of Rutherglen and their classic muscat is an institution of Aussie wine history. It’s rich, intense and complex; such a viscous wine with a deep brown colour, luscious notes of nuts and preserved fruits, and a dry finish with well integrated oak. It’s pretty much won every gold medal the judges can give for an Aussie fortified so you know you’re getting the goods. Now go claim your favourite spot on the couch and settle in with something classic.

Region
Rutherglen
Established in the 1850s, Rutherglen is celebrated as one of Australia's oldest wine regions. Originally 'founded' by Lindsay Brown, who planted his four acre vineyard in the west of Rutherglen, today the region is home to over 20 wineries - from the legendary, to the family owned-and-operated to young boutiques. Sitting neatly in the North East of Victoria, this iconic region is bordered by the Victorian Alps and the Murray river to the north. Famously known for its warm wine-growing conditions - its terroir makes it ideal for growing Mediterranean varietals such as Viognier, Marsanne, Roussanne, Grenache, Mourvedre, to Sangiovese and Fiano, to local favourites Durif and Muscat.
