About this Item

1995 Cape Vintage Port Limited Release
3 (1 x 3) 750ml

Long regarded as a Cape benchmark and even admired by producers in the Douro, this 'port' from the Helderberg is no longer produced. Older vintages are hen's teeth collectors' delights, all drinking beautifully now.

Private Client

Critics Ratings
