Black Angus

Slow roasted Black Angus beef, smoked beef ribs, and roasted leg of lamb.

The vineyards are located in the Helderberg region of Stellenbosch, benefiting from the cooling Atlantic winds. The Shiraz base thrives on a southwesterly-facing slope of the Helderberg, overlooking False Bay. The Bordeaux varieties for the Black Angus are grown on the northwesterly facing Scale and granite slopes of the Helderberg. These carefully selected sites produce some of the region's finest grapes, meticulously maintained to ensure exceptional quality. The grapes were harvested by hand and carefully sorted upon arrival at the cellar to ensure that only the finest quality is vinified.

Barrel maturation takes place in a combination of new (34%), second-fill (33%), and third-fill (33%) 300-litre barrels for 14 months. After selecting the best, most balanced barrels, the final blend is assembled and undergoes an additional 6-7 months of aging in 5000-litre foudres to gain further complexity. The wine is then bottled unfiltered in the luxurious Boschendal Heritage bottle.

Each component undergoes a natural, hands-on winemaking process and is vinified separately to ensure optimal varietal expression, extraction, and tannin development.

With a wine making tradition spanning over 300 years, Boschendal Wine Estate offers a veritable treat for wine lovers everywhere. This gracious national treasure is a familiar favourite to many and a glorious discovery for countless others.
