Place
From Trillian's Hill Vineyard out behind the township of Penwortham. The Divinity is only made in certain vintages when the conditions are just right.
Vintage Conditions
The location's idyllic sub-region of Watervale and climactic conditions, requires the fruit to hang well into April before harvesting for it to reach its acclaimed and luscious potential.
Winemaking
Fortified using brandy spirit halfway through ferment, the wine then spends over thirty months ageing in old sherry hogsheads to impart further interest and complexity.

Tasting Notes
Back Vintage Tasting Notes-
Appearance
Sunkissed amber with a honeyed meniscus.
-
Nose
Hints of honeycomb and toffee swirl around the glass.
-
Palate
Creatively layered and textured, the flavours of toffee, Turkish delight and aged walnuts come together in a whirlpool of increasing decadence. Splashes of marmalade and fruit nuttiness along with apricot flavours provide added weight and creaminess to the long, sweet palate.
