Product information "Boplaas The Chocolate Cape Vintage halbe Flasche 2018"

Bright purple-black in colour with a garnet-red rim in the glass, Boplaas The Chocolate Cape Vintage bewitches the nose with aromas of ripe black plums, peach, cherry liqueur, sweet apricots, blackberry, hot spices and a hint of herbal fynbos. The palate is flattered by rich, strong nuances of ripe peaches and apricots, black plums and berries as well as an exciting blend of fine spices, liquorice and dark cocoa. This liqueur wine presents an immensely successful balance between intense fruit nuances, smooth tannins and a rich variety of spices.

Treatment in the cellar

Im Boplaas The Chocolate Cape Vintage wurden Touriga Nacional und Tinta Barocca Trauben verwendet, zum richtigen Zeitpunkt wurde die Fermentation mit hochwertigem Traubenschnaps unterbrochen, dann reifte er 12 Monate in alten Holzfässern und wurde anschließend auf die Flasche gefüllt. Die Herstellung ähnelt dem Cape Ruby, wobei der Cape Chocolate jedoch noch länger auf der Flasche reifte.
