Critic reviews

Decanter – Smoulders with smoked meat, fennel sausage, smooth dark chocolate and Kahlúa-nuanced blackcurrant, plus sweet, bright, red cherry conserve. Lightly mouth-coating tannins (attractive grip and texture) reinforce the dry, rustic, savoury profile. Sourced predominantly from Boekenhoutskloof’s Porseleinberg and Goldmine farms in Swartland. Syrah and Cinsault are aged in seasoned 2,500-litre French oak foudres and barriques; Grenache in seasoned 600-litre demi-muids and Cabernet Sauvignon (7%) in new French oak barrique. Total production of 2,982 barriques. Satisfying. Drinking Window 2021 - 2028

About this Wine

This cult South African wine from venerable producer Boekenhoutskloof seems to get better with every vintage.

An exotic and vibrant vintage with an iron edge running alongside the inky core of prunes, mulberries, cloves and boasting floral notes. Firm ripe tannins on the palate covered by plums, blackberries and olive tapenade. Textured, composed and seamless in style.

The latest vintage of this cult South African wine from venerable producer Boekenhoutskloof is as rich and flavoursome as ever, but this year seems to have an added touch of elegance. A complex blend of Syrah, Grenache, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cinsault and Viognier from specially selected blocks, it is full-bodied and rich, with a smooth, silky mouthfeel. Flavours of blackberry, leather, spice and - yes - chocolate. Drink now, or cellar for five+ years. The best vintage we've tasted.
