Tasting Notes
With fruit sourced from the famous Malherbe vineyard in Franschoek, planted in 1902 and some in 1942, along with a small portion of Muscat d’Alexandrie, planted in 1902, this is a beautiful wine. It will keep for many years, and is a collector’s item, but gosh it’s delicious now too.
More Info
Located in the furthest corner of the beautiful Franschhoek valley, the farm’s name means “ravine of the Boekenhout” (pronounced Book-n-Howed). Boekenhout is an indigenous Cape Beech tree greatly prized for furniture making, as featured on their beautiful labels. A formidable set up extensively restored in the last 30 years, with Marc Kent at the helm, Gottfried Mocke in the cellar, and South Africa's best farmer without doubt, Callie Louw looking after vines, the Boekenhoutskloof range is better than ever.
