Boschendal Estate, Appellation Series Elgin Pinot Noir

2016 {(currentVariant.size?' | ':'')} {( currentVariant.size )}
Elgin, South Africa
Type Red
Grape Pinot Noir
Drink Now/Cellar

Translucent ruby with a youthful strawberry edge. A vivid flourish of raspberry, cranberry and red cherry aromas with discreet roasted nuts. An intricately structured wine with a delicate entry, blossoming into a poised concentration of wild berry flavours and oak spice. Gains complexity and richness before ending with a long, finely textured finish.

Reviewer: Neal Martin

Matured in 15% new oak, the 2016 Appellation Series Elgin Pinot Noir has a rather muddled bouquet. The palate is balanced with a soft opening and moderate acidity that imparts a modicum of freshness, though it doesn’t offer much in the way of Pinot elegance.

about the brand
Boschendal Estate

Boschendal (literally meaning “Bush & Valley”) was established in 1685, making it one of the oldest wineries in the New World. The land was originally granted in 1685 to the French Huguenot emigre, Jean Le Long, who sought sanctuary in the Cape. Ideally situated between the iconic areas of Stellenbosch & Franschhoek, this position allows for a variety of cultivars to flourish; showing great balance, complexity and varietal typicity. The estate is proud to carry WWF Conservation Champion status and is globally recognised for its biodiversity and sustainability practices. Boschendal has three separate cellars for the crafting of quality Cap Classique, White and Red wines; each with their own respective winemakers whom are dedicated to producing a number of South Africa’s most awarded wines.
