The Bishop of Norwich is not actually a Port, because it comes from South Africa. But this fortified wine was grown on Muratie’s vineyard in Stellenbosch, which was planted with Portuguese grape varieties back in 1965. The wine was aged in cask for two years and Rick tasted this particular barrel when visiting his friend Rijk in March 2020. Falling in love with it, he bottled it in June 2020, and the result gives any Port a run for its money.
