Campbells Isabella Rare Rutherglen Topaque 375mL
At more than twenty years of average age, the potent intensity, dense viscosity and monumental complexity of Campbells’ Rare Topaque are a given, but what sets it apart from almost all others at this level is that it achieves all this with remarkable integration and balance. Sweetness, acidity and intensity are all here in full measure, but nothing dominates or pokes out, a testimony to the blending expertise and aged material of this legendary house. It’s got everything: layers of spice, nutty notes, and even black olives. $94 at Discount Wines.
