Boschendal 1685 Cabernet Sauvignon is a powerful wine in the classic Cabernet style. Aromas of red and black fruits emanate from the glass, combined with subtle hints of fine oak spice and aromatic herbs. The fruit expression is incredibly lively and spoils with excellent depth and length. The palate is masculine and firm with a deliciously juicy and fruity core. Seamless and well-integrated notes of oak wood intertwine with the masculine side of this Cabernet, creating a wonderful depth and complexity in the wine.
