Product information "Boekenhoutskloof Syrah 2017"
No question about it, this is the best Shiraz from the Cape. In the nose, aromas of black fruits explode with an abundance of dark plums and violets, white pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and dark chocolate. On the palate the Boekenhoutskloof Syrah shows a very intense fruit depth, with a dense grip and a long multi-layered finish. Even now, in its young years, it is extremely balanced and round. Shiraz lovers should not miss this limited drop.
Wine description according to Weinwisser 03/2017:
"Built in concrete. Expressive, yet clear and delicate bouquet with violets, dark berries and a touch of cedar and tobacco. Beautiful balance of concentration and finesse. Very elegantly structured, very smooth, almost polished and well-fitted tannin, beautiful extract sweetness, great drinking flow.

Die Trauben für diesen Syrah stammen von drei verschiedenen Weinbergen und werden, wegen der individuellen Eigenschaften separat sortiert, entrappt, leicht gequetscht und vinifiziert. Spontane Gärung erfolgt in Betontanks, wonach die Weine in großen traditionellen 2500 Liter Fässern für bis zu 18 Monate reiften, bevor sie verschnitten wurden.
