ROCKFORD P.S MARION TAWNY PORT 19.5% 750ML

It’s strange to think that we may never get to blend and bottle some of the fortified parcels we made this year for our aged Tawny. We are the caretakers of these wines and only the passing of time ensures their flavours concentrate and metamorphose from a spirity grape juice into a viscous concentrated blend of raisins and marzipan. Aging in old wooden barrels under a hot tin roof is the only way to create this form of wine alchemy.
The many years we allow the components to age encourages the flavours to slowly concentrate and develop into a rich and luscious traditional Barossa Tawny. The final blend has an average age of more than fifteen years.
The P.S. Marion Tawny is released as part of our ongoing support of the Paddle Steamer Marion. Every sip of this wine helps to put steam back into the boiler of one of the finest ships that ever plied the waters of the Murray River.
