Boschendal 1685 Shiraz is an elegant wine, complex with pleasantly built-in tannins and a velvety wood tone. On the nose, this delicious red wine bewitches with seductive aromas of red fruits such as cherries, mulberries and plums, paired with subtle hints of exotic spices. The palate reveals generous nuances of ripe black fruit and a hint of cool pepper. Sumptuous, juicy and full-bodied, this wine pampers the palate with elegant freshness, silky tannins and great length.

The wine fermented in steel barrels for an average of between 12 and 16 days. In most tanks the wine remained on the skin for 1-2 weeks. The young wine went into the barrel immediately after malolactic fermentation. 100% of the wine matured for 14 months in 300l wooden barrels, 30% of which were new wood.
