The non-irrigated vines, many of which are over 80 years old, produce low yields with wonderful concentrated flavours.
An opaque black/purple wine. Amazingly thick and chewy offering a nose of tar, overripe blackberry and cassis scents. The powerfully flavoured wine oozes across the palate with extraordinary purity, glycerin extract and alcohol.
Robert Parker Junior describes this wine as "amazingly thick" with "over-ripe blackberry and cassis scents" and flavour that "oozes across the palate".

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.
