Wine Description
A modern expression of traditional Portuguese varieties, ‘No. EC3’ - the first release under this code - was grown in the Barossa, but takes inspiration from the Duoro Valley. Each variety has been grown by a generational grape-growing family, their fruit contributing for many years to Seppeltsfield’s fortified wine releases.
