Fortified from the classic Australian Tawny varietals, predominately Shiraz and Grenache, Morris of Rutherglen's historical, quarantined old vines yield some of the nation's most precious parcels of fruit. A profound, multi layered structure of mature fruit flavours, with aged oak/rancio expressions and almond creamyness, balanced by a deep spirit dryness, continuing on a long and persistent, flavoursome and textural finish. The classic, rich and full Australian style, offering tremendous length, ribald complexity and satiating palate warmth.
Morris are custodians to some of the oldest stocks of maturing fortified wines in Australia. Shiraz and Grenache grapes are encouraged to ripen fully before harvesting. Following the crush, a partial fermentation is initiated before pressing. A specially selected low strength spirit (alcohol with character) is added to arrest fermentations and fortify the young wine, followed by transfer into a selection of old, seasoned oak barrels and casks for several years to develop the inimitable aged rancio tawny characters. Only the best casks, some as old as forty to fifty years of age will find their way into Old Premium.

About the Morris Winery
After five generations of Rutherglen viticulture and unprecedented success at international competitions, David Morris has emerged as one of Australia's most outstanding winemakers
Morris Wines, established in 1859, is the continuing story of five generations of family winemakers. George Francis Morris established his vineyard and winery near Rutherglen in North Eastern Victoria. He planted a trial vineyard plot of ten acres at Fairfield two miles east of the current Morris Mia Mia winery location. By 1885 Morris planting's had grown to over 200 acres making them the largest wine producer in the Southern Hemisphere. By the late 1890s the devastating spread of Phyloxera, an aphidlike insect that attacks and kills vines, crippled the Rutherglen district. Morris»
