Information about "Boschendal 1685 Shiraz 2021"
The Boschendal 1685 Shiraz 2021 reveals an elegant balance of rich fruit flavors and well-integrated oak influences. It entices with aromas of ripe cherries, rich blackberries, and succulent plums, accented by whispers of exotic spices. The palate is generous, showcasing layers of dark ripe fruit and a touch of cool pepper, all enveloped in a juicy, full-bodied texture. With its captivating freshness, silky tannins, and excellent length, this Shiraz stands out as a noteworthy choice for any wine lover.
The wine fermented in stainless steel tanks for an average of 12 to 16 days, with extended skin contact for 1-2 weeks. Following malolactic fermentation, it was transferred directly into barrels, where 100% matured for 14 months in 300l oak barrels, with 30% new wood.
