At the recent Muscadel Challenge
2010, hosted by the South
African Muscadel Association,
Boplaas Family Vineyards
received both a gold and platinum
award. Boplaas Family Vineyards,
from Calitzdorp, was the only
entrant to achieve this
accomplishment at the challenge.
The Boplaas Muscadel 2009, a
white Muscat de Frontignan of which
a portion of the blend came from 35
year old vineyards, was awarded a
gold medal. The Boplaas Muscadel
2009 also received 4 stars from WINE
Magazine and a Veritas silver medal
last year.
The Boplaas Reserve Muscadel 2009
which was
produced from the farm's oldest
Muscat de Frontignan vineyards, received a platinum
award. The judges were impressed by
the complexity and word-class
quality of this wine, as well as the
innovative 375ml packaging used. |

Tasting notes: Notes of black
pepper, flint and wild, spicy fruit on the nose
and a refreshing acidity on the palate. Slow,
natural fermentation with no fining or filtering
add to a wine that is complex, yet accessible
and soft. The wine is rounded off by the long
aging in new and older oak barrels.
