2011 Boekenhoutskloof The Chocolate Block   Always Syrah dominant as the wonderful bittersweet chocolate flavors derive from the Malmesbury Syrah, this blend also has some juicy dark berry and peppery flavors. Very food friendly as the wine's acidity is in balance. Roasted pork with sage, roasted lamb with rosemary, coffee and pepper rubbed roast beef, or roasted ice cream....just testing on the last one to see if you noticed. "The influence of the Grenache’s red fruits on this wine is striking. The nose shows an abundance of redcurrant, plums, crushed rock, and an array of spices. The floral notes adds to its complexity. The freshness of the wine puts its head in front of the previous vintages. Spicy oak aromas cover a rounded mid-palate that reveals layers of fruit with intense purity. Textured, composed and seamless in style." Learn More ... |

2010 Boekenhoutskloof Cabernet Sauvignon   "Classic cassis and red fruit, laced with nuances of cedar, tobacco and spice." "At first blackberries, mulberries, musk and eucalyptus with floral undertones. Tobacco, vanilla, strawberries and cream and an unmistakable minerality develops in the glass. Yet again, this vineyard produced a wine with an endless backbone of acidity on the palate which is lined with a core of firm ripe tannins." Learn More ... |

2010 Boekenhoutskloof Semillon   "With the lanolin and other tertiary flavours that will develop with bottle age, this wine will be one of the most complex and balanced ever to be produced from these 107 year old vines." "Spiced-orange peel, peach blossom, cut straw and lemon marmalade that lasts for ages on the nose. Undertones of vanilla pod with hints of beeswax starting to develop. It shows a remarkable structure and tight mineral acidity underneath its weighty texture accentuated by the extended lees contact. Vibrant and fresh with massive citrus concentration."
