Aging in French barriques gives the wine structure without overpowering the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In the glass, it displays blackberry, cassis, and a hint of cedar, along with dark spice notes. On the palate, it is full-bodied, yet with a fine tannin structure and good extract—not a behemoth, but a well-balanced wine. The finish is long and subtly spicy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e \u003cb\u003eDishes:\u003c\/b\u003e Leg of lamb with herb crust, beef fillet or mature hard cheese\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e \u003cb\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/b\u003e 16–18 °C\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e \u003cb\u003eDrinking window:\u003c\/b\u003e drinkable now, will easily last until 2028+\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Boekenhoutskloof","offers":[{"title":"2021","offer_id":52985110430032,"sku":"VJ0501-2021","price":44.62,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"2022","offer_id":53716239384912,"sku":"VJ0501-2022","price":44.62,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/3509\/4864\/files\/vinoscout_boekenhoutskloof_cabernet_sauvignon_stellenbosch_20240429084941.webp?v=1773492591","url":"https:\/\/www.vinoscout.de\/en\/products\/boekenhoutskloof-cabernet-sauvignon-stellenbosch-v30795","provider":"Vinoscout","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
