Deep, ruby red colour. A very attractive, complex nose with aromas of spice, forest floor, cherry and wild berries. The palate has lovely velvety berry fruit with firm but fine tannins. Good structure and balance with a long finish.

Boschkloof

Boschkloof was purchased in 1995 and named after the natural ravine or ‘kloof’ on the farm. The land consists of rolling hills and picturesque mountain backdrops. The soil consists mostly of decomposed granite and koffieklip. The original vineyards on the farm consisted mostly of Cape Riesling but Jacques decided to remove it and plant better-suited cultivars like Syrah Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. Today Boschkloof is most renowned for their Syrah especially the single vineyard bottling called Epilogue. It was the first red wine of South Africa to score 98 points by an internationally acclaimed critic.
