Information about "Boschendal Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon 2022"
The Boschendal Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon offers a captivating deep ruby color and an enticing aroma of ripe cherries, dark cassis, delicate wood notes, and fine spices. On the palate, this full-bodied wine unfolds with a smooth texture complemented by an elegant structure that envelops the harmonious flavors. With its refined tannins, each sip reveals new layers of taste. While it delights in its youth, this wine promises excellent aging potential, developing further nuances over time. It stands as an exemplary representation of the remarkable complexity and length that Stellenbosch Cabernet has to offer discerning wine connoisseurs.
The rigorous quality process initiated in the vineyards continues in the cellar, ensuring no green berries are vinified. Fermentation took place over approximately two weeks in stainless steel tanks, with regular pump-overs to extract ripe, round tannins and vibrant color. Minimal interventions preserve the wine's dense flavor and rich mouthfeel, resulting in light filtration and subtle oak aging for 16-18 months in a mix of 30% new and older barrels followed by bottle maturation.
