Seppeltsfield Para Grand Tawny 10 Year Old is a distinguished fortified wine that captures the essence of the Barossa Valley’s rich heritage and winemaking excellence. Crafted with meticulous care, this tawny offers a medium-weight profile enriched by aromatic notes of lightly toasted almonds and delicate papery almond skins, delivering a refined and elegant tasting experience.
Fortified with a creamy, aromatic brandy spirit, the wine develops a layered spiced complexity through extensive aging in seasoned oak barrels. The unique maturation process occurs within a modified solera system using 2000L vats, where annual blending ensures remarkable consistency and freshness. Each component wine is individually aged in small oak casks until it reaches 10 years, then carefully selected and blended to maintain the signature style and average age of the Para Grand Tawny.
Seppeltsfield itself stands as a showpiece of the Barossa Valley, renowned for its magnificent 19th-century winery buildings nestled among nearly 100 hectares of vineyards. Since the 1850s, Seppeltsfield has been a focal point of the Barossa wine industry and proudly holds the world’s longest unbroken chain of vintage wines, dating back to 1878. This legacy enables the release of a genuine 100-year-old fortified wine annually since 1978, underscoring the brand’s unparalleled commitment to tradition and quality.
With an average age of 10 years, the Para Grand Tawny embodies the perfect balance of tradition and innovation, making it a superb choice for those seeking a sophisticated and complex fortified wine. Its rich heritage, combined with the Barossa Valley’s ideal climate and terroir, contributes to its distinctive character and enduring appeal.
