Boplaas 17 Year Potstill Brandy 750ml

Experience the pinnacle of South African distilling with Boplaas 17 Year Potstill Brandy, a rare single-harvest release from the heart of Calitzdorp. Winemaker Daniel Nel harvests select Colombard grapes from a single vineyard to ensure absolute quality and flavor concentration. This artisan spirit underwent double distillation in a century-old copper potstill to achieve its remarkable purity and character. The 2005 vintage earned a prestigious Gold Medal at the Michelangelo International Wine & Spirits Awards, marking it as a top-tier choice for collectors.

The nose opens with an inviting bouquet of caramel fudge, ripe apricots, and sun-dried raisins. On the palate, you will discover a luxurious blend of Cape Malay spices, including cinnamon and cardamom, balanced by creamy coconut notes. This brandy matured for nearly two decades in French oak barriques before finishing in old tawny port barrels. This unique aging process imparts a deep golden hue and a velvety mouthfeel that rivals the world’s finest Cognacs. You will enjoy a lengthy finish of honeyed peaches and soft floral tones in every glass.
