mehrere Informationen

The Boplaas Cape Tawny was produced from the typical grapes Tinta Barocca and Touriga Nacional. After many working steps it is stored in the barrel for at least 8 years. It flows fiery red-brown into the glass (the colour comes from the long stay in the barrel) and smells of roasted almonds and walnuts, honey, caramel, citrus fruit, a melange of spices and warm brandy nuances. On the palate, warm notes of fruit, toffee, rum pot, roasted nuts, honey and spices spread out - its wonderfully ground tannins ensure a round pleasure. The finish is soft and long lasting, the aftertaste of delicious fullness. This text has been automatically translated.
