99/100 — Jeni Port · Non-Vintage Tasted Jan 2025
A celebration of the master fortified blender's brilliance in a wine which is as close to magical as you can get. Six generations of Morris winemakers have had a hand in the solera that brings this beauty to the glass. This is not a wine to hurry; take your time to embrace the scents and flavours rich and luscious in fig, raisin, plum pudding and sticky date pudding and nutty rancio laid out across a velvety texture. Complex? Goes without saying. 500ml.
97/100 — Tom Cannavan · Non-Vintage
“From the ‘Rare’ category of Rutherglen Muscats, the average age of wines in this blend is 20 years, the vineyards between 15 and 50 years old… fabulous dark Muscavado sugar and raisins, such depth touching on espresso and Seville orange, nutty, and so warming into an endless finish with such intense sweetness.”

“Morris is one of the grand old names of Rutherglen… nearly black wine reveals scents of mocha and damp moss… dark notes of molasses and dried dates fill the midpalate and linger on the finish.”
17.5/20 — Jancis Robinson · Non-Vintage
