Tawny Port Style

DP90 Rare Tawny

Seppeltsfield DP90 Rare Tawny has reigned supreme on the Australian wine show circuit for over 30 years and as the most awarded wine of any style is rightfully regarded as the benchmark Australian Tawny. Fruit from extremely low yielding Barossa Valley vines is given extended maturation in small oak casks at Seppeltsfield in the Barossa Valley before careful blending to create a wine with incomparable levels of finesse, complexity and length.
