Bosman Family Vineyards Twyfeling Cinsault 2023

13.5% abv

Vol- 75cl

Luscious and concentrated although of medium body. A bold wine with an elegant structure. Lovely fresh berry flavours with hints of tobacco, spice and savouriness. Cassis, violet and crushed white pepper.

“I have a soft spot for South African Cinsault, and this wine, although perhaps not as aromatic as other bottles out there, does a very nice job of staying simple and pure. The Bosman Family Vineyards 2022 Wellington Twyfeling Cinsault has fruit The wine comes in pretty packaging and offers a fun bouquet of cassis, violet and crushed white pepper to match. It is lean in terms of mouthfeel, and if one thing is certain, this Cinsault has a very sassy side.” 2024 – 2028
92 Points, Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate, Jun 05

This is a humble (and modern) take on what a Wellington bush vine Cinsault might look like. From bush vines harvested in three phases in order to initiate a pied de cuve natural fermentation. Around 10% of the total is whole-bunch fruit. Sorted, de-stemmed, slightly crushed grapes fermented at lower temperatures (24-26 degrees C) and matured in 225L second and third fill French Oak barrels. Very gently filtered on the bottling line.

The first generation of the Bosman family settled on the farm in 1798. The Lelienfontein Estate produced wine until 1957, when the family turned their focus to their vine nursery. In 2007, the Bosmans returned to winemaking and released the first wines from the renovated 260-year-old cellar. In 2008, a landmark joint venture between Bosman Family Vineyards and the Adama Workers Trust saw the formation of the biggest Black Economic Empowerment deal in the South African wine industry to date, with eligible workers receiving co-ownership of 430ha of farming land. Many of the 260 full-time workers on the estate are from 5th generation families who together own 26% of the business. In 2009, the Bosman's’ ethical and sustainable methods of producing and trading their wine received official Fairtrade certification. In 2015 the wine farm was the runner-up for Ethical Company of the Year at The Drinks Business Green Business Awards. With one of the pre-eminent vine nurseries in the southern hemisphere and 3 different growing regions from which to cultivate their blends, the Bosman Family Vineyards have unrivalled access, knowledge, and expertise when it comes to crafting their wines. The wine-making team of Corlea Fourie and Natasha Williams revel in the quality of fruit at their command.
