In a diverse and vibrant South African wine scene, Boschendal has once again proven its excellence with 12 wines scoring more than 90 points each on this year’s prestigious Tim Atkin’s Special Report.
Boschendal is proud to announce the appointment of Michael Langenhoven as the new White Wine Winemaker and Danielle Jacobs as the Cap Classique Winemaker. With the growth and success of the estate’s white wines and Methodé Cap Classique wines, the decision was made to split these responsibilities to give both winemakers more focus on their respective wines and to ensure the continuation of the legacy which these wines have achieved to date.
It is often said that a good chef creates art in the kitchen and magic in your mouth. This was indeed the case when we were treated to the culinary stylings of the talented Chef Wandile Mabaso at the recent launch of the exclusive Business Day Most Wanted Club. The launch was held in collaboration with some of the most coveted local and international luxury brands.
Nicolas 2016 is a blend brimming with character, with each component outstanding in its own right which together creates something exceptional. Shiraz, a signature variety for Boschendal, adds intrigue and depth with spicy notes. Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot provide a classical structure which complements the beautiful deep colour and vibrant red fruit provided by the Malbec. While the Merlot enhances the fruit profile and Cabernet Franc elaborates on the spicy richness of the Shiraz.
Every year when autumn phases into winter, we admittedly get quite excited at the opportunity to revamp our wardrobes. As much as the easier, lighter trends of autumn are enjoyed, when autumn turns into winter and multiple layers become mandatory as opposed to an option, so does a visit to your nearest mall.
