Critics Ratings

'Boekenhoutskloof's Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon is always a little firmer and sturdier than its Franschhoek bottling, which is why they are both worth buying and collecting. Sourced from three blocks on the Helderberg, this sees 60% new wood and is serious and concentrated, showing damson and blackcurrant fruit and dense tannins. Drink 2023-35.' – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2019, 94/100

'Grapes from four Helderberg vineyards. Includes some 6% Cabernet Franc. Matured for 18 months in French oak, 60% new. The nose shows red and black fruit, an attractive herbal note plus hints of vanilla and spice. The palate shows great focus – pure fruit, fresh acidity and firm but fine tannins. Wonderfully long and dry on the finish, this is really elegant.' – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 95/100 (Oct 2019)
