"At Bullers we still use traditional methods to produce our Premium Muscats. The grapes are hand picked at our non irrigated vineyard. In the winery the skins are gently pressed to extract flavor without unwanted tannins or bitterness. The wine is aged in old oak hogsheads and blended in a solera system." - Winemaker Notes

R.L. Buller & Son Fine Muscat 375ml Reviews

"R.L. Buller & Son was founded in 1921 by the grandfather of Andrew Buller, the current winemaker. The winery remains one of the benchmarks in the production of fortified sweet wines from the warm terroir of Rutherglen." - 91, Wine Advocate

"Bullers entry-level Muscat blend sourced from inside and outside Rutherglen itself is a terrific value. It's perfumed yet full bodied and rich, with sweet notes of golden raisins and dried figs, as well as darker hints of dates and molasses." - 91, Wine Enthusiast

"Green-tinged brown color. Intensely perfumed bouquet shows a strong spicy character and scents of orange peel, clove, nutmeg and brown sugar. Deeply sweet but not excessively thick, avoiding any syrupy character. Zesty orange peel and spices on the palate, with sweeter pit fruit and caramel notes on the back end. Impressively vibrant for a fortified wine, with strong finishing spiciness and a hint of bitter orange." - 91, International Wine Cellar

"Bright and sweet, with aromatic spices and prune flavors, picking up a nice hint of dried cherry and strawberry as the finish lingers. Drink now. 5,000 cases made." - 90, Wine Spectator

R.L. Buller & Son Fine Muscat 375ml Tasting Notes

Mid-reddish brown to amber at the rim, this Muscat has aromas of raisin and flowers with a hint of spirit. Initial sweetness and raisin flavors linger to reveal complex hints of honey and lemons later on. With an underlying structure to the tannins, this wine has a long finish. The honeyed flavors return and linger in the mouth.
