Getting its name from its colour, a distinctive ruby hue, this wine is a very popular choice for use in oak barrels. Its full fruity palate and bouquet complement its astringent finish.
This small, family-owner winery was established in north-eastern Victoria by the first William Chambers in 1858. In 2001, after a highly distinguished career, Bill Chambers OAM handed over the winemaking function to his sone Stephen, making him the sixth generation of the family to make wine at Rosewood. Today, the distinctive rose logo on the Chambers label is recognised as the benchmark of unique, fortified wines that continue to attract attention throughout the world. In spite of the typically laconic style of the Chambers operation, Robert Parker Jnr rated Chambers Rare Muscat and Rare Muscadelle with a Perfect Score in his 2005 Wine Advocate.
