Bosman Erfenis, W.O. Wellington, 2018

Bosman Erfenis was created to honour the arrival of the first-born children of both Petrus and Carla Bosman and winemaker Corlea Fourie. In Afrikaans, Erfenis means heritage and legacy, and the outstanding 2018 vintage of this celebration-worthy wine has been selected to commemorate Opimian’s 50th year. This grand vin is only made in exceptional vintages, meticulously crafted from the cellar’s best barrels of Cabernet Sauvignon, Nero d’Avola and Cinsaut. Its bouquet is intriguing, brimming with a mosaic of smoky plum, clove, vanilla, violet and herb. This wine’s statuesque frame cascades with the taste of plum, blackcurrant, mint and leather. This is a poised wine with a remarkably long finish. It has just started evolving in bottle providing a glimpse into its future development. Raise a glass of Bosman Erfenis to mark this special year and continue to enjoy it over the next ten years or more. 2023-2033+ - LW
