- Four decades ago my father Wyndham initiated the practice of putting aside a few barrels of each years production of our deluxe tawny ports. Known in the cellar as Antique Tawny, these wines are left to quietly mature in various corners of our marble cellars. During this ageing process, evaporation (known as the Angels Share) occurs at between 2.5% and 4.5% each and every year. Our master port blender, David Doc Zimmermann, then painstakingly assembles a wine with an average age of over 15 years - rich and concentrated, it is an important part of Australias wine heritage.. . .

- Rich and sweet and lighter bodied compared to the flavor...though not light bodied at all. Port lovers probably hate it for the sweet but I love it. Put it on ice cream. I did. Oh and this one will start to turn if you leave it corked overnight so finish it the day you open it.
