About this Item
Boekenhoutskloof, located in the Franschhoek valley, was established in 1776 and gets its name 'Boekenhout' from an indigenous Beech tree. Boekenhoutskloof, managed by Marc Kent, describes themself as a Syrah specialist. Their efforts in conservation can be seen through initiatives they have taken-on in their farm and surrounding areas. They are also a founding member of the Franschhoek Mountain Conservancy.
After many years of absence from the Guild Auction, I decided upon a Cabernet Sauvignon from the spectacular 2015 vintage as a reserve selection Cabernet for the Auction.
Tasting Notes: Claret-like in character with black fruit and graphite on the nose, very fine tannins and a certain nervosité on the palate - a textured wine with classic length already in place. - Cape Winemakers Guild Auction 2017.
