In alignment with the original vision and passion of the Seppelt Family to make 'the best' fortified wines around, it's nice to get reviews, awards and accolades to confirm our 'best' efforts.

"It is worth pointing out that this wine is only available in 75cl format, which must make it one of the greatest value sweet wines in the known universe. Why we in the UK don't drink containers of this nectar at dinner parties is beyond me, given that this is exceptional value for money, as well as ancient and heroic and it makes everyone else in the room better looking instantly". So says Matthew Jukes
"Pale tawny, super transparent, molten Demerara sugar. Very slightly rancio, extremely sweet and pretty chewy. Very long indeed. I could imagine lapping this up with fresh walnuts. Great stuff. See my background to Seppeltsfield. VGV" So says Jancis Robinson M.W. of the same wine at the same tasting Hide Editorial

OK.. if you thought sherry was only for Grandma, youre in for a HUGE surprise here. Very European, Amontillado is much drier, much ballsier than your stereotypical sherry and its about to make its mark Down Under. For a bit of class and style, serve this as an aperitif with olives, nuts and cheese or be even more adventurous (and oh so European) and enjoy the very dry, honey, orange-peel and nut complexity with chicken, duck, rabbit dishes or light clear consomm? soups. Or you could just pour a glass for yourself and enjoy something different but very rewarding. Marvellous balance and intensity of nutty rancio with penetrating aicidity; flavour-packed, fleetingly sweet and nutty, then a dry finish.
