KWV Classic Collection Cape Tawny NV

Extended wood maturation resulted in a beautiful amber colour with orange zest, dried fruit, caramel and nuttiness on the nose. This full flavoured wine explodes with fruit, marzipan and toffee on the palate, with a well balanced sweet finish.

Serve chilled before a meal or with cheese and chocolates after a meal.

Maturation: 8 - 10 years in a combination of 300 litre and 500 litre French oak barrels.
Varietals: Tinta Barocca + Cinsaut + Souzão.
