mehrere Informationen

The Boekenhoutskloof Sémillon flows into the glass in a delicate golden-yellow colour and exudes a bouquet of fragrant orange blossoms, ripe nectarines, aromatic lemongrass and tough beeswax that is absolutely beguiling to the senses. On the palate, the attack is soft with deliciously seductive nuances of white peaches, tangerine, fine lemon cream, lime zest, ginger, dill and tarragon. An immensely full-bodied and opulent wine, which nevertheless retains a clearly defined focus due to its well-balanced acidity, thus giving the intensity of the middle palate a beautiful swing. In the lively and discreetly salty finish, this top drop finishes with a hint of poached pears, chamomile flowers, fenugreek and fresh fennel. This text has been automatically translated.
