The Boekenhoutskloof Franschhoek Cabernet Sauvignon is a wine of absolute top class - a masterpiece! Enchanting aromas of red stone fruit and lush cassis seduce the nose and make the anticipation of the first sip rise. The palate presents itself with remarkable fullness and fullness of body as well as great texture and youthful elegance. Delicious nuances of blackcurrants, spicy tobacco, and subtle hints of sweet fynbos complete this delight and, in combination with the refined and well-integrated tannins of this wine, offer a truly unforgettable experience.

The grapes were hand picked with the greatest care, sorted by hand and completely destemmed on arrival at the winery. The grapes were then subjected to a cold swelling phase in traditional concrete vats, after which fermentation began, partly spontaneously and partly using selected yeasts. Once the alcoholic fermentation was completed, malolactic fermentation followed in French barriques with a capacity of 225 litres per barrel. The wine then matured in French oak barrels made by Sylvain and Saury.
