Description
The Teperberg Essence Fortified Red Wine is an impressive fortified red wine that will immediately appeal to lovers of port-style wines. Made from carefully selected Merlot grapes and aged for a long time in French and American oak barrels, this wine offers a rich combination of ripe fruit, chocolate, coffee, and spices. A powerful dessert wine with a velvety structure and a long, warming finish.
Full-bodied, soft and seductive
In the glass, this wine displays a deep ruby red color. The aroma opens with notes of ripe plums, figs, and dried fruit, followed by refined hints of chocolate, coffee, toast, and warm spices. The taste is rich and velvety, with a beautiful balance of sweetness, fruit, and oak influences. Each sip ends in a long, soft, and warming finish.
Aged for extra complexity
For this special wine, Merlot grapes are carefully selected and processed into a fortified wine with great concentration and depth. The wine then matures for about fifteen months in French and American oak barrels. This aging provides extra complexity, softness, and characteristic notes of coffee, cocoa, and toast.
Perfect with chocolate, cheese, and desserts
This fortified red wine pairs excellently with dark chocolate, chocolate desserts, nuts, blue cheeses, and aged cheeses. It is also an excellent choice with stewed pears or as a conclusion to a dinner. Thanks to its rich character, it is suitable as both a dessert wine and a digestif.
