MARTIN BENZ ÜBER:
Brandy 1783 package
Benz: Our DLG Gold Award-winning Brandy 1783 was gently distilled from a very high-quality cuvée of matured South African white wines (mainly Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay and Viognier) and then stored at Schalkenbosch Weinvertrieb for 6 or 8 years in pre-filled brandy, sherry and port wine barrels (one third each) and then blended into a cask quantity. 450 bottles of the 6-year-old Brandy 1783 and 330 bottles of the 8-year-old Brandy 1783 were bottled from these barrels - hence the name "Limited Release". Included in the package: 1 bottle of 6 year Brandy 1783 VSOP Limited Release 1 bottle 8 year Brandy 1783 VVSOP Limited Release The brandy is characterized on the nose by an intense scent of raisins and dried apricots. On the palate, aromas of nuts, honey and toffee are particularly evident and subtle tobacco notes and wood aromas linger during the long and mild finish. This brandy combines tradition and quality and is reminiscent of the long history of this fine distillate, without which Christian seafaring would have been unthinkable. For this reason, we borrowed the name Brandy 1783 from the 1983 film "Highlander" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8dVElW3chk
