Boschkloof CWG Conclusion 2006
The different varieties were harvested separately. The Cabernet Franc was harvested at optimum ripeness, resulting in soft tannins; and the Merlot was cold soaked for 2 days before fermentation. The wines were left on the skins for between 25 and 28 days. No press juice was used. The wine was matured for 27 months in new French oak. Tasting note: Deep in colour with some tobacco, flinty and minerally flavours. Good mid-palate with a long finish
