The 2019 Boplaas Cape Vintage Reserve continues the Nel Family heritage of crafting the very finest Cape fortifieds utilising Portuguese varieties, traditional vinification and dedication to style, to create wine that will offer decades of enjoyment. This wine was the last Cape Vintage Port that was produced from all four Portuguese varieties. Since then the Touriga Franca has been replaced with a new parcel of Touriga Nacional vineyard. Grapes were hand-harvested at optimal ripeness and fermented in open sement lagars, with intense manual pigeage to extract optimal flavour, colour and tannin prior to fortification with wine spirit. It was then matured for 18 months in old, large-format French oak barrels before bottling, unfined and unfiltered. Tasting notes This Cape Port is inky black in colour with hints of purple-black on the rim. This wine shows a bouquet of crushed blackberries, tart cranberries, kirsch and blue violets. Bright all-spice top notes mingle with fynbos and savoury undercurrents. On the palate, the powerful fruit flavours merge with notes of liquorice, red fruits and hints of dark chocolate, and conclude in a dry finish. Time will temper the fiery, fruity exuberance of youth and slowly unfurl the complexities of this fine Cape Fortified.
