The new Monis Vintage Port 2006 is a blend of the classic port varietals, Touriga Naçional, Sousão and Tinta Roritz, which was mostly grown in the Calitzdorp area, a region associated with some of the country's finest ports.
“A fortified wine with finesse and great elegance in style with the same amazing ageing potential as all our ports,” is how winemaker and port aficionado Dirkie Christowitz describes his first Vintage Port.
A management member of the South African Port Producers' Association, and famous for his award-winning blockbuster Tawny Ports - his last stemming from the 1996 vintage - Christowitz has always been active to enhance the standing of local ports.
