The Boekenhoutskloof Vinologist Swartland Syrah presents itself with an intensely perfumed and hearty bouquet. Aromas of fragrant violets, dark plums, lush blackberries, cranberry, exotic spices and subtle shrubby notes. The floral violet and red berry aromas of the bouquet also run seamlessly through to the full-bodied palate, where they are wonderfully complemented on a fleshy middle palate by delicious nuances of ripe blueberries and blackberries and fine notes of warm vanilla, cloves, nutmeg and candied orange peel. The wine is robust, yet supple and richly textured. Remarkable balance with lively and well integrated acidity complete this delicious pleasure. In the finish the wine ends with a touch of sweet spices and lingers long and pleasantly.

Treatment in the cellar
Mit lediglich wenigen Stunden Kontakt auf der Haut fermentierte der Cinsault mit minimalem Eingriff in den natürlichen Gärprozess in Tanks aus Edelstahl und wurde nach Abschluss der Gärung mit einem Schuss Syrah versehen, um so eine schöne Komplexität in den Wein zu übertragen.
