Description:
The old Redemption's pedigree is truly great, in 1947 the blend was begun and when David Franz father Peter Lehmann joined Saltrams in 1959, he nurtured and added to the reserves with additions of Shiraz, Dolcetto and Tokay. These stocks then formed the base for the awesome old Tawnys, Alameda Show and Mr Pickwick. When Peter Lehmann left Saltram in 1979 he owned a significant portion of these old Tawny Stocks. In the 1980's he created a new blend, the Old Redemption from these amazing old reserves. The mid 80's, 90's and 2000's saw a decline in the interest in fortifieds so he tucked away the Old Redemption in its barrels for another day. Today fortified wines have started to gain appreciation and recognition and they are again available with a little more maturity, character and sophistication. A deep burnt umber coloured wine with golden edges, great clarity and brightness. The huge upfront nose is lifted with grapy brandy spirit showing golden toffee, complex old oak overlaying smoky hints. The palate has a silky rich mouth feel that develops into a fiery delight of hot chilli like pepper fire and cleansing spirit, while sweet oak abounds. The concentrated raisin sweetness fills and caresses the mouth before opening lotus like to layer upon layer of spicy complexity finishing with cigar box memories. Available in 50 cl Bottles. (6 x 50 cl)

Quinta do Noval TAWNY Port
Description: Noval Tawny is a carefully-selected blend of lighter wines which have, after three years, started to lose their colour and take on some of the flavours that come from barrel ageing. Noval Tawny is a bright-amber in colour, still showing the pinkish tinge of youth. Its nose is concentrated and shows some candied fruit character. On the palate it is light with balanced acidity and raisin-like fruits. It is perfect when chilled as an aperitif or when served with lighter desserts such as meringue or fresh fruit. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £122.99
