Heritage Vines 1978 Tawny
$250.00
This outstanding aged Tawny is a blend of fortified wines made with Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes harvested in February 1978. Matured in large oak casks in Drayton's Solera System, which houses wines more than 50 years old. A rare find, from limited and constantly diminishing stock. Tawnys of this age and pedigree don't come around too often.
Deep tawny in colour. Delightful aromas of toffee and a hint of orange zest. Rich, lush flavours of creamy caramel and dried fruit. Crisp finish, with long-lasting nutty characters.
Match made in heaven for a creamy blue cheese or a sharp crumbly aged cheddar. But perfectly delectable when sipped on its own.
With careful long-term cellaring, this wine will remain vibrant and flavoursome for many decades to come. Best before year 2153.
