The seductive Blend Boschendal 1685 Shiraz Mourvedre boasts an opulently full body. In a deep and dark plum tone with a warm ruby red rim in the glass, beguiling aromas of white pepper and dark cherries emanate with a hint of subtle barbecue aromas. On the palate, it is well rounded, rich and lush with intense nuances of concentrated mulberry and fruity character, skillfully balancing the vibrant spicy and chocolaty oak aromas of Shiraz. A smooth structured yet young and lively blend with well integrated tannins and a subtly restrained earthiness. A wonderful blend of warm spices and juicy fruit with a long, full and complex finish.

After fermentation in stainless steel tanks (12-16 days), 80% of the wine matured in 300-litre oak barrels, 25% of which were first, second, third and fourth filled. The remaining 20% remained unwooded.
