Description
When the sun goes down, the cellar comes to life. Join us for "The Cellar Never Sleeps," a journey into the heart of Stanton & Killeen’s fortified legacy. Guided by the soft glow of candlelight, you’ll wander through a winery where time slows down and the air is thick with the scent of aging oak. Discover the stories of the people and moments that shaped our journey before retreating to our hidden speakeasy for a masterclass in boldness. You’ll taste our most expressive Muscat, Topaque, and Tawny, including a truly special 1980 Muscat drawn directly from the cask. It is an evening of mystery, history, and the very best of Rutherglen.
