Boschendal Grand vin Blanc 1998

The star-bright, straw-coloured wine has an aroma of herbs and grass, enhanced with hints of spice and tropical fruit. These flavours carry through to the harmonious palate and lingering finish. The ideal partner for smoked fish, seafood, and creamy poultry or veal dishes.

The Chardonnay adds a rounded richness to the wine.
