just outside the village of Franschhoek

It continued to open up over 45 minutes

Monte Bello remains the flagship wine

Taittinger produces a vintage champagne only when the harvest has been of exceptional quality

This wine is a single qunita vintage port

Quite firm tannin

like drinking silk with a hint of tobacco in a dream that lingered all night

This just kept improving for as long as the bottle lasted

has a great future

ethereal but not weak

As with much of Europe sadly not a great vintage

So rare to find mature bottles of these Australian classic wines
