Sweet Dessert Fortified Series - Club

The Earlybird Series are wines picked and bottled early to capture the right balance of youthful fresh fruit flavours & sweetness that is ideal for early drinking.

The Earlybird Moscato is highly aromatic, light in alcohol and displays a fresh, lively & spritzy palate balanced with sweet fruit flavours which is best served slightly chilled.

Hungerford Hill Liqueur Tawny is made from very ripe red grapes and carefully selected brandy spirit. It has matured in small oak barrels in our cellar to develop the characteristic ‘rancio’ character of aged Tawny, with a complex, luscious palate and intense fruitcake flavour.

A dark amber colour. Has intense raisined muscat fruit characters with considerable complexity. Displays rich luscious muscat fruit flavours typical of this classic fortified dessert style.

Vermentino is naturally late ripening and revels in the warm climate of the lower Hunter Valley. In vintage 2021 we allowed the Vermentino from our St Vernay vineyard next to the Hungerford Hill cellar door to fully ripen and turn golden in  the late summer sun. The resulting wine is aromatic with ripe peach and melon characters, well balanced sweetness and a soft finish. Serve chilled.

Bright mid gold with green hues, the lifted bouquet displays rich dried apricots with a lime marmalade character. A luscious and rich palate shows beautifully integrated toasty oak with lemon citrus acidity to balance the richness and finish clean.
