Boschendal Heritage Collection Grande Syrah

The Heritage Collection Grande Syrah from Boschendal is the absolute top product of the historic winery in the Franschhoek Valley – one of the oldest wine farms in South Africa, founded in 1685. The grapes come exclusively from a single, hand-picked block of vines on weathered granite soil on the south-facing slopes of the Helderberg in Stellenbosch , irrigated without limits and rigorously thinned for extreme quality – only 15 barrels per vintage.

In the glass, it shines a deep, brilliant dark red . The nose is elegant and complex with aromas of dark plum, blackberry, exotic fruits, black pepper, and spices , accompanied by delicate notes of chocolate and subtle oak spice. On the palate, it combines juicy fruit with cool restraint, seamlessly integrated tannins, and a long, silky finish – Old World elegance with a South African twist.

Matured for 15 months in French oak barrels (40% new), served at 14.0% ABV at 16–18°C . Ideal with beef goulash, lamb chops, and grilled vegetables – with an aging potential of up to 30 years .

Boschendal

In 1685, Jean Le Long founded the Boschendal winery in South Africa. Translated, the name means “forest and valley” and thus describes the region 60 kilometers east of Cape Town, where the winery can be found, very well.

The winemakers have a total of 350 hectares of vineyards, which are distributed at altitudes of 120 to 350 meters, so different wines can be grown at the best altitudes for them.

Boschendal's vineyard areas are characterized by clay soils and the so-called Tukulu soils, on which white and red grape varieties are grown for both classic wines and sparkling wines. In the winery's modern cellar facilities, 2.88 million bottles of wine are bottled annually.
