Boschkloof Bakhand Shiraz 2010
Harvested at optimum ripeness and fermented in 500 litre open barrels. Natural fermentation took place with no temperature control. The wine was punched down by hand four times a day. After alcoholic fermentation, the wine was left on skins for 14 days. Malolactic fermentation took place in barrels and the wine was left on lees for 5 months. Tasting Notes: Deep, dark, concentrated colour with lots of beautiful white pepper spice and violet flavours on the bouquet. Great mid-palate with layers of Shiraz fruit. This is a big wine showing lots of elegance, lovely soft velvety tannins and a lingering aftertaste.
