Information about "Boschendal Suzanne 2023"
Presenting the Boschendal Suzanne, a luxurious white blend honoring Suzanne de Lanoy, the spouse of Boschendal's Huguenot founder, Nicolas de Lanoy. This blend features 56% Semillon and 44% Sauvignon Blanc, revealing a luminous straw color with a sparkling green edge. Enticing notes of white nectarine, lime, and green fig jam are elegantly complemented by subtle oak hints. A whisper of mineral crispness adds intrigue to the overall palate. This stunning confluence of flavors exemplifies the exquisite craftsmanship of Boschendal!
The grapes are cold stored and fermented in 500-liter oak barrels. After fermentation, they undergo an 11-month aging in primarily 500-liter French oak barrels, adding depth and enhancing mouthfeel. The winemaking team conducts tastings and blends prior to bottling to ensure perfect harmony in the final composition.
