Penfolds Father Grand Tawny 10 Years

With regard to the production process and the type of wine, the Penfolds Father Grand Tawny is similar to a port wine, though it is not allowed to bear the protected term ‘port’. However, this does not diminish the wine’s quality and characteristics - on the contrary, Penfolds, Australia’s most famous winery, has produced a genuine delight. The different base wines are at least 10 years old. Wines of an average of 15 different vintages unite to create the Penfolds Father Grand Tawny, thus ensuring that the nuances of each vintage produce a concentrated Tawny. The base wine is traditionally enriched with specially distilled alcohol containing between 78 and 85 of alcohol by volume, simultaneously increasing both the Tawny’s alcohol content and its complexity. In the glass, the Father Grand Tawny is a light brown of medium intensity with hints of yellow and green at the rim. On the nose, it offers wonderful notes of oak, chocolate, plums and roasted nuts, complemented by nuances of cloves and anise. On the palate, the Tawny shows its full power and elegance, offering sweet notes of fruitcake and concentrated wood aromas. Its finish is wonderfully balanced, fresh and long-lasting.The Penfolds Father Grand Tawny 10 Years is lovely on its own as an aperitif and goes beautifully with sweet desserts.

Penfolds

Wie viele Weingüter hat auch Penfolds einmal klein angefangen. Das alteingesessene Weingut wurde 1844 von dem englischen Arzt Dr. Christopher Rawson Penfold gegründet, der seinen Patienten Wein als Gesundheitstonikum empfahl.

Die Reben pflanzte er in Magill, neun Kilometer von Adelaide entfernt, im Süden Australiens. Magill Estate ist heute noch Hauptsitz des Hauses. Bis zum Jahre 1962 wurde das Gut von Rawson Penfolds Nachfahren weitergeführt. Seit 2002 wird auch der Grange wieder auf Magill Estate vinifiziert.

Protos Reserva DO
Der Protos Reserva stammt von Weinbergen aus dem Ribera del Duero die über 50 Jahre alt sind. Die Lese der Trauben findet mit der Hand statt. Die Grundlage für diese herrliche Reserva bilden 100% Trauben der Rebsorte Tinta del Pais, die im allgemeinen Sprachgebrauch als Tempranillo bekannt ist.Nachdem die Trauben einer weiteren manuellen Selektion unterzogen und gepresst wurden, startete die Gärung auf den Schalen bei einer Temperatur von 28 Grad Celsius. Der Gärvorgang zog sich insgesamt über 24 Tage hin. Im Anschluss reifte der Wein für 18 Monate zu 2/3 in französischen und zu 1/3 in amerikanischen Eichenfässern um dann für weitere 24 Monate in der Flasche seine Entwicklung fortzusetzen.Die Farbe des Protos Reserva ist intensiv dunkelrot mit zum Rand hin fast schwarzen Reflexen. In der Nase deutliche Noten schwarzer Früchte, sowie Röst- und Gewürznoten. Wahrzunehmen ist außerdem Zimt, Tabak, Kakao, Vanille und nasser Kies. Schwarzer Pfeffer, Rosmarin und Lorbeer spiegeln die Gewürznoten wider.Der Wein hinterlässt insgesamt einen komplexen und eleganten Eindruck. Am Gaumen ist der Protos Reserva unheimlich intensiv und mächtig. Fruchtigkeit wird durch Röstaromen und würzige Noten ergänzt. Die gut eingebundene Säure und die abgerundeten Tannine unterstützen die muskulöse Struktur, welche dem Wein einen langen Abgang garantiert.
