Story
Nestled in one of the most picturesque valleys in the Cape winelands, lies Boschendal, one of South Africa 's original wine farms. With a winemaking tradition spanning over 300 years, Boschendal Wine Estate offers a veritable treat for wine lovers everywhere.
Tasting Notes
Pair this full-bodied and complex wine with the aria "Casta Diva" from Vincenzo Bellini's Norma. The aria's elegant and flowing melody mirrors the wine's well-balanced tropical and stone fruit flavours, whilst its rich, emotional depth complements the leesy richness and toasted nut notes. The lingering, moreish finish of the wine is beautifully echoed in the sustained and graceful phrasing of the aria, creating a harmonious and indulgent pairing.
Food Pairing
Dishes such as seared salmon with lemon and herb butter, grilled chicken with vegetables or citrus marinade, shrimp or mussel dishes or salads with rocket, parmesan and citrus dressing are great options to accompany this wine.
Wine Makers Note
This balanced white wine from South Africa is made from the Chenin Blanc grape variety. After the harvest, the grapes are quickly taken to the press house. Here they are selected and carefully crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Vinification is followed by maturation on the fine yeast for a few months before the wine is finally bottled.
