mehrere Informationen

The De Krans Cape Tawny Limited Release was produced using the typical Portuguese method. The Tawny matures in the barrel and produces golden yellow, copper coloured drops. It smells wonderfully warm of orange peel, caramel, hazelnut and toffee. On the palate, the already sniffed aromas continue as taste nuances. With very good length and density as well as its excellent grip, this Cape Tawny spoils with wonderful opulence and fullness. This text has been automatically translated.

Treatment in the cellar

The grape material for the Cape Tawny Limited Release was selected with great care and harvested by hand. Upon arrival in the cellar the grapes were destemmed, crushed and rapidly cooled down in open fermentation tanks. The grapes were left to ferment spontaneously, i.e. the fermentation of the berries began exclusively by wild yeast cultures that naturally occur in the area. At the desired sugar level, the fermentation process was stopped by adding alcohol to the must. The wine then matured in old barrels with a capacity of 225 litres. The wine was blended with a selection of 5-15 year old vintages.
