Overview
Seppeltsfield Para Liqueur is one of Australia's historic fortified wines and a longstanding icon of the Barossa Valley. First released in 1953 in its distinctive bell-shaped bottle, Para became renowned for its remarkable concentration, complexity and extended maturation in seasoned oak. This 1981 Vintage Tawny offers significant appeal for collectors of mature Australian fortified wine.
Winemaking
Based on Grenache, Shiraz and Mataro, Para Liqueur undergoes extended maturation in small seasoned oak barrels under warm cellar conditions. Evaporation during maturation progressively concentrates the wine's flavour, aroma and viscosity, contributing to the silky texture, richness and balance between sweetness and savoury freshness that define the Para style.
Producer Tasting Notes
Seppeltsfield Winery: “COLOUR Rosewood with amber hues. AROMA Notes of pecan, maple syrup and toffee. PALATE Generously flavoured yet stylish and balanced. A fresh, lively finish with elements of praline, toasted nuts and brown spice. STYLE Para Liqueur is one of Seppeltsfield's most recognisable wines, having graced the cellar of generations of fortified collectors. Since its first release in 1953 in its iconic bell-shaped bottle, Para Liqueur has represented all of the hallmark characters of great Australian Tawny. The supreme concentration and complexity of the Liqueur is a result of extended wood aging, giving rise to a silky texture and a delicate balance of sweetness and savoury freshness.”
