Boschkloof CWG Conclusion 2007
Cabernet Sauvignon 55%, Merlot 20%, Cabernet Franc 21%, Petit Verdot 4% Harvested by hand. Fermented naturally with very long skin maturation – 35 days on the Merlot and Petit Verdot. The Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc were left on skins for about 20 days. The wines were blended after 9 months and matured for another 18 months in new, small French oak barrels. Tasting note: This is a classic blend with lots of ripe fruit, hints of chocolate, almonds and nuts. Lovely wood flavours that add complexity. This is a big wine with lovely tannin structure for bottle ageing. Drink in 2013.
