The palate is smooth and layered, thick and luscious, with powerful flavour and a beautifully rounded finish. Elegant and beautifully balanced, it carries both freshness and age, delivering complexity and fullness without losing vibrancy and fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-is-only-node=\"\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-end=\"988\" data-start=\"574\"\u003eThis is the muscat you reach for when your barrel has matured beyond Deluxe topping material. Once a blend reaches a certain style or age, adding muscat that is too young can stall its progression. Winemakers Reserve Muscat is designed for ageing barrels that have outgrown the basics, or for anyone wanting to take their blend to the next level sooner, building a more luscious and complex muscat with confidence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChoosing your next top up? \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.stantonandkilleen.com.au\/products\/liquid-luxury-sample-box\"\u003eTry a sample bottle first and find the one that hits the spot.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor more information about Home Barrels, read our guide here: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/liquidluxury.myshopify.com\/blogs\/liqlux-academy\/fortified-wine-on-tap\"\u003eFortified wine on tap – Liquid Luxury by Stanton \u0026amp; Killeen\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"66\" data-start=\"0\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDIFFERENCE BETWEEN STANDARD, PREMIUM, DELUXE AND SPECIALTY BLENDS?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"243\" data-start=\"68\"\u003eOur Standard fortified is approximately 2 to 3 years old, fresh and versatile.
