The 2005 Seppeltsfield Para 21 Year Old Single Vintage Tawny is an elegant and beautifully mature expression of the historic Para house style. It offers complex aromas of toasted almond, dried orange peel and liquor-soaked cherry, complemented by crème caramel, roasted nuts, polished oak and gentle baking spice.
On the palate, it is medium-weighted, supple and harmonious, with persistent flavours of almond praline, dried citrus, caramel and mature cask spice. Its generous sweetness is balanced by bright orange-like acidity, leading to a long, warming and finely composed finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an exceptional gift for anyone connected to the 2005 vintage and a fascinating example of traditional Australian fortified winemaking. Serve lightly chilled at approximately 14–16°C. It is fully matured and ready to enjoy, although unopened bottles can be kept for many years under suitable conditions. Ideal with crème caramel, almond tart, dark chocolate, roasted nuts, aged Comté or simply enjoyed alone after dinner.
