Seppeltsfield was established in 1851 by Joseph Seppelt and is one of the oldest wineries in Australia.
Today, Seppeltsfield celebrate the unveiling of one of Australia’s most significant wines, with the 1922 100 Year Old Para Vintage Tawny. The release coincides with the Seppelt family having moved into the homestead on 20th February 1851.
This is the 45TH consecutive 100 Year Old Para Vintage Tawny to be released from the historic 1878 Centennial Cellar – seeing 100 Summers and Winters maturing in oak. This continues the lineage of releases first conceived by Oscar Benno Seppelt in 1878, now commonly known as the ‘jewel in the crown’ at Seppeltsfield.
The custodian of the Seppeltsfield Centennial Cellar, Fiona Donald, Chief Winemaker describes the 1922 100 Year Old Para Vintage Tawny:
“Great intensity harnessed by citrusy acid and notes of sun dried stone fruit – nutty, spicy, with terrific length. A more savoury expression with focused lift and intensity of spicy walnut liqueur – woody, toasty, some herbal notes too”.
The Seppeltsfield 100 Year Old Para Vintage Tawny is rated as ‘Exceptional’ in the Langton’s Classification of Australian Wine.
The 1922 100 Year Old Para Vintage Tawny has limited availability in 100ml format – hand filled to order, individually numbered and authenticated for collection purposes. Presented in a Jarrah timber gift box with a certificate that can be personalised accordingly.
Available from Seppeltsfield Cellar Door or via Seppeltsfield.com.au with shipping possible worldwide.
This can also be exclusively tasted at the Seppeltsfield Cellar Door in the Barossa, just under one hour’s drive from Adelaide.
