About this Item
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.
Produced from a single vineyard in Wellington, the 2002 vintage was yet another Platter 5-star wine, by now well established as one of the top expressions of Syrah from the Cape.
Critics Ratings
“Sensitive vintage appreciation, consistency, understanding of site character all benefits of Marc Kent’s long-term association with this old Wellington vineyard. 2002 in usual full-blooded style. Brooding, dark berries, meaty intensity, dense mouth coating richness with focus, freshness from delicious savoury acid core. Individually heightened by traditional vinification; native yeasts, only used French oak, 27 months.” - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2005, 5*
