This wine has a gorgeous nose that expresses abundant floral perfume supported by cedar, redcurrant, black pepper, coriander and suggestions of Turkish Delight. Softened red fruit follow onto the palate which is multilayered and exhibits marzipan, mineral notes and a structure that's silky. The wine is poised and textured.

Boekenhoutskloof was founded in 1776. The name of the farm, located in the furthest corner of the beautiful Franschhoek valley, means "Boekenhout Gorge" - Boekenhout is a native Cape beech that is highly prized for furniture making. In 1993 the farm and estate was purchased and restored and a programme of planting new vineyards was established.
