Notes on the Wine

The nose shows fresh cut grass, capsicum and straw with hints of lime and granadilla fruit. Fresh fruitiness follows through onto the palate with a hint of nettles. The wine is very refreshing with a crisp, integrated acidity. The weight and intensity of the mid-palate is pleasantly surprising for this variety and the wine finishes with a lingering lemony aftertaste.

Notes on the Producer

Boekenhoutskloof was established in 1776. Located in the furthest corner of the beautiful Franschhoek Valley, the farm’s name means “ravine of the Boekenhout” (pronounced Bookn-Howed). The Boekenhout is an indigenous Cape Beech tree greatly prized for furniture making. In 1993 the farm and homestead was bought and restored and a new vineyard planting program was established that now includes Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Grenache, Semillon, and Viognier.
