About the SessionThe 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
Limited Release Port 1979
1 (1 x 1) 750ml
The KWV Limited Release Port 1979 represents a historic collector's piece from South Africa's most powerful 20th-century wine institution. Produced from traditional Cape Port varieties matured in large casks in KWV's extensive Paarl cellars, this wine has spent nearly fifty years in bottle developing the classic complexity of an aged tawny: dried fig, orange peel, walnut, caramel and the warm integrated spirit that only extreme age can produce.
These older KWV releases are among the rarest and most historically significant South African fortified wines in existence.
