Boschkloof Epilogue Syrah 2018
100% Syrah
Wine of Origin Stellenbosch
The grapes were harvested in three stages with 30% fermented whole bunch press. Fermentation was natural and in open top fermenters. After fermentation a portion was matured in concrete tanks and a portion was matured for 13 months in 30% new 400 litre French oak barrels. A special barrel selection was made for the CWG Auction.
Tasting Notes: A breath-taking nose of violets, white pepper, bramble berries and mixed spices. Seductive Syrah fruit and freshness on the palate. Refined, satin-like tannins give this wine great ageing potential.
This wine will be ready for drinking in 2021 and beyond.
Winemaker: Jacques Borman – Resigned Member
