Occasion - Often VF’s are regarded as only an after-dinner wine, it does suit the purpose admiringly, but when regarded as a food wine new horizons open up. At any age, this wine is a wonderful accompaniment to a wide range of dishes from cheese, meat, grills and hearty vegetables. Can be served chilled in the summertime.
Cellaring - This wine spent a short amount of time in oak barrels, mainly to let the different varietals meld together and settle. It is then bottled before any oxidation can occur, the wine will then age and develop in the bottle, similar to a bottle of red table wine. Cellar for 20 - 30 years, however, this wine can be enjoyed at any age.
