About this Item

Syrah, 2013
6 (1 x 6) 750ml

Boekenhoutskloof was established in 1776 and since it’s modern era makeover in 1993 it has been under the guidance of maverick spirit, Marc Kent. Unafraid to experiment with the unconventional, Marc is the chief winemaker and driving force behind the dynamic farm, co-founded by the similarly innovative late Tim Rands.

Critics Ratings

‘Violet whiffs seduce while the broad, dry & intense palate continues the affair. 2013 expressive, nuanced, layered & integrated; dry, fine tannin grip. Swartland fruit joins Wellington, as in 2012 (5 stars, 96 pts). 25 months old oak. Natural ferment, 20% whole bunches.’– Platter's SA Wine Guide, 4.5*

‘Vivid and ripe, with lush blueberry compote and plum sauce flavors streaming forth, backed by spice cake and black tea notes. Offers a deftly toasted finish. Pure hedonism.’ – James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 91/100 (May 2016)
