About the Session

The Port session is a true treasure trove for collectors of Cape and Portuguese fortified wines. It is rare to encounter a collection of vintage Ports such as those featured in the 2026 Strauss Winter Catalogue. With the colder evenings approaching, these complex and beautifully layered wines make the perfect companions to open before dinner, adding warmth and atmosphere to any gathering.

About this Item

Cape Vintage 2005
6 (1 x 6) 500ml
The Axe Hill Cape Vintage is made from Touriga Nacional, Tinta Barocca, Tinta Roriz and Souzao, hand-sorted and foot-crushed in traditional lagares, then matured in old 500-litre French oak barrels for two years before bottling, in close adherence to traditional Douro winemaking methods. The 2005 vintage continued the estate's outstanding run of form in Calitzdorp.
