Blessed with a sunny climate, good soils and ample water, the Buller vineyards at Beverford, nestled within the Swan Hill region, produce the richest, nut and citrus flavoured Old Tawny wines which can rival the finest in Victoria. A generously flavoured Old Port in the traditional style, Buller is endowed with great complexity. Sweet fruit and beautifully integrated oak combine to display all the developed characters of long term ageing. Along with the slow transformation in colour from bright ruby to deep tawny, have arrived the most exquisite changes of flavour.
The magnificent Buller cellars house stocks of ageing vintage wines which have been fortified and set aside for selection and inclusion into Fine Old Tokays which are endowed with the rich expression of Rutherglen. The region is blessed by a sunny climate, good soils and ample water, it enjoys the added security of managed irrigation, an insurance against the dry years. It is an ideal place to grow fruit of all types and has become a major contributor to the Australian winegrowing industry. As well as grapes from the Buller's own vineyard, fruit is collected from growers throughout the region, some of whom have supplied Buller for three generations. Maturation in a selection of fine, old oak hogsheads. Alcohol 18.0%
TASTING NOTES
A deep mahogany/ tawny in colour. Bouquet of rich fruit cake with a touch of rancio. Complex rich spicy fruit flavours, hints of cherry syrup and sweet tobacco. Good palate length leading to a smooth finish with notes of rancio.

About the Buller Winery
After a distinguished career in the Royal Australian Navy, Reginald Langdon Buller in 1921 took up land at Rutherglen in the winegrowing region of North East Victoria
The Rutherglen winegrowing region was then, as it is now, famous for its fortified wines, Muscats, and full bodied red wines. Reginald Buller called his vineyard Calliope after the British warship. Producing delicious luscious wines and gutsy, full-bodied reds, the backbone of this vineyard is Rutherglen Shiraz. Old Shiraz vines at Calliope are not irrigated so yields are low at about one tonne to the acre. Consequently the fruit from this vineyard produces intensely flavoured wines, but in rather small quantities, that Andrew Buller crafts into wines of great depth and elegance. There are also small plantings of some of the rarer varieties including Mondeuse and Cinsaut. Buller»
