KWV 1930 Muscadel

What a HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER item to add to your collection!!! SUPER RARE!!! This item is in excellent condition, considering it’s age, as per the photos below. The 750ml bottle is still sealed and is presented in the original solid wood box. The following is directly quoted from winegoogle.co.za “My favourite wine (muscadel) was also the overall winner with a boisterous average score of just over 18, putting it in the top three NOBLE ROTTERS wines of the last decade: KWV Late Bottled Vintage Bin B14 Muscadel Superior 1930.

KWV’s Lampies Lambrechts and Thys Loubser are our heroes for their sterling efforts in getting the wine donated to the club for this tasting. It seems that details of this (pre-computerised era) wine will remain somewhat of a mystery, as various people at KWV had scant luck in unearthing any information about it from dusty and dungeoned files. Combining estimations from Sakkie Bester and Lampies it seems that, in all likelihood, it’s a white Muscadel made from Paarl / Wellington grapes, that spent around 45 years in wood. Yes, that four and a half decades! ….

One recent fact about the 1930 is that the single bottle of this wine that was up for auction at the 2010 Nederburg Auction.
