Glass In Session® Winecast

Arts


This is an exploration of the main styles or Rutherglen (Australia) fortified wines - or Stickies. We also learn a little about Rutherglen Network and the classifications of the famous Muscat wines. Because Rutherglen’s wine history dates back to the Gold Rush of the 1800s, “Liquid Gold” puns were made. The host can’t help herself.
