Boschendal The Pavillion Blanc 2008

This is a wine with upfront fruit and hints of musk-sweet aromatics. A complex palate enriched with peach flavours, lingering with apple and pear crunchy freshness.

in the vineyard : Vines were pruned to two-bud spurs during July and August. Shoots were removed during October, leaving only 2 - 3 per hand-spaced spur. As yields were naturally low, no bunch removal was necessary.

about the harvest: Grapes were hand picked in the cool early morning to help preserve fruit flavours. They were then carefully transported to the cellar in 400kg bins.
