Massive concentration with a rich sultana and currant nose. The palate is balanced and fresh with the longest nuttiest finish you could ever wish for.

Awards and credentials

International Wine Challenge

Silver Medal

The Wine Advocate

"It offers up aromas of scotch whiskey, caramel, candy, marmalade, raisins, and a touch of spicy nuts. Rich, flavourful, and fleshy, it was fashioned from a solera averaging 15 years of age. It can be drunk now, or aged for another decade."

Vinification Details.

This is blended in small, old, oak barrels using a semi-solera system, comprising a base wine & a vast assortment of different parcels of vintage wines & blends.

Producer Information

Joseph Rowe Osborn, founder of d'Arenberg and patron of the turf, bought his first McLaren Vale vineyards with the winnings of his racehorse, Footbolt, whose name lives on in Shiraz form. His grandson d'Arry and great-grandson Chester inherited the business and have built it into one of Australia's best loved wineries. The last decade has seen Chester develop a range of white wines every bit as individual and thrilling as the reds with which the company made its name. With the iconic red stripe labels and funky names d'Arenberg's wines have a loyal following, eager for more of the rich, concentrated fruit for which they are famous.


Regional info.

This old wine style is named Nostalgia Rare Tawny because of the nostalgic value of very old Tawny Ports (no longer allowed to be called Port). ‘Rare' is because the average age of this wine is so old that more has evaporated to the air through the pores of the old wood it lay in than is left behind
