TBWC Fleurieu 3YO - Batch 2 500mL

The nose is rich, sweet, and a little wild—opening with notes of sticky date pudding, molasses, and dark cherries, followed by hints of black tea, oak char, and eucalyptus. There’s a savory undertone of dried herbs, smoked nuts, and salted caramel, evoking a warm and earthy coastal character. On the palate, it’s punchy and full-bodied. Flavours of dark chocolate, sultana loaf, and toasted spice lead the way, balanced by baking spice (clove, cinnamon), burnt orange peel, and espresso. Despite its youth, the mouthfeel is oily and satisfying, with well-integrated tannins and a bold sherry-like richness likely from seasoned wine or fortified casks. The finish is long and warming, lingering with notes of roasted nuts, oak spice, sea salt, and cocoa dust, with a faint edge of damp earth and coastal breeze.
