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.
Description
A wine created in a fruit driven style with kiwi, gooseberry and hints of guava aromatics. Fresh tropical characters are integrated with a focused acidity that adds to the complexity and length. Great intensity and balance with a long lingering finish.
Food Pairing
