Boekenhoutskloof Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon

  • Cabernet Sauvignon
  • South Africa Stellenbosch

Made from selected parcels of Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards planted on north-west facing slopes of the Helderberg mountain and a south-east facing slope of Vlottenburg. These pockets of excellent Cabernet Sauvignon grow on a combination of deep decomposed granite soils with Table Mountain sandstone and “koffieklip”. The mild maritime influence from the cool False Bay coast and granitic soils are evident in this wine’s hallmark minerality and classic, graphite-like profile.

The wine has a dark, brooding nose of black fruits and sweet spice. Aromas of intense cassis and an attractive perfumy character lends richness. The palate is opulent and velvety with classic dark berry fruits, showing blueberries, plums, mulberries and nuances of dark chocolate and graphite. The wine is full-bodied, with a good lemony acidity to balance the juicy wild berry fruit. Plush, svelte, integrated tannins add complexity to a rich, luscious wine. Black cherry and gentle hints of blueberry crumble linger on a brooding, earthy finish.
