Background
Rooted in 175 years of winemaking heritage, the 1847 Winery Tawny Collection represents the pinnacle of fortified wine craftsmanship. Ranging from 10-Year to the rare and distinguished 40-Year expression, each Tawny is a tribute to time, tradition, and terroir. All our Tawny wines are aged in carefully selected Tasmanian River Red Gum barrels, many of which have been in use for over 70 years—some for more than 120 years. These dense, seasoned casks impart remarkable structure and complexity, allowing for graceful oxidation and slow maturation over time. The result is a layered bouquet of dried fruits, roasted nuts, toffee, and warm spice, capturing the signature character of 1847’s fortified style.
Winemaking
The 1847 Wines 10-Year-Old Aged Tawny is crafted from select batches of fortified base wine, primarily sourced from old vine fruit grown in the Barossa Valley. A blend of traditional varieties—predominantly Shiraz and Grenache—is carefully fortified and then matured in small oak casks, including seasoned Tasmanian River Red Gum barrels that have been in use for 70 years. Over an average of 10 years’ aging, the wine undergoes slow oxidative maturation, allowing its flavours to deepen, soften and integrate. The final blend is assembled from multiple vintages to ensure balance, consistency and the hallmark 1847 Winery style.
Vintage Report
Each blend of 1847 Wines Tawny is a meticulous composition of multiple vintages and varietals, primarily sourced from the Barossa region. This multi-vintage approach allows the unique character of individual Barossa harvests to harmonise into a richly layered and consistently balanced fortified wine.

“Red-brown hue; juicy, rich, already showing some rancio development; good balance. A complex wine, fresh and fruity before an essentially dry finish”.
