Sherry Style (Apera)
Vera Viola - Oloroso
Parcels of Grenache fruit with great intensity of flavour are blended with refined palomino grapes to create Seppeltsfield Vera Viola DP 38 Barossa Valley Oloroso, the richest and sweetest of the styles. Extended maturation using a traditional Solera system results in a rich, full-bodied wine with a delicate balance of sweet honeyed flavours, aged rancio complexity and a lifted dry finish.
The Seppeltsfield DP 38 Barossa Valley Oloroso is the winner of 17 gold medals in Australian Wine Shows since 1990.
