Boekenhoutskloof / South Africa

Founded as a farm in 1776, French Hugenots started planting grapes in the Franschhoek Valley. In 1993 the farm was purchased by a partnership of entusiasts and Boekenhoutskloof started producing and bottling wine. Now positioned as the leading producer of Syrah in South Africa. The Boekenhoutskloof range ensures that the ultra-premium profile of the property is maintained. The Chocolate Block continues to amaze with its global success; Porcupine Ridge remains all about over-delivery and it’s hard to find a higher quality Rhone-style blend than The Wolftrap. Boekenhoutskloof is proud that two leading publications, Robert Parker’s The Wine Buyers Guide and Tom Stevenson’s International Wine Report, rate Boekenhoutskloof the #1 producer in South Africa.
