This wine is produced by Boekenhoutskloof, a renowned winery located in the beautiful Franschhoek region, known for its rich wine history and exceptional terroir.
When poured, the Boekenhoutskloof Sémillon reveals a bright, golden color that shines with vibrancy and clarity in the glass. The aroma is intense and inviting, with a bouquet of ripe peaches, apricots, honey and a hint of vanilla. Subtle floral notes and hints of nutmeg add an extra layer of complexity to the nose.
At the first sip, the Boekenhoutskloof Sémillon enchants your taste buds with its silky and velvety texture. The wine has a full body and excellent balance, with a lively acidity that pairs beautifully with the lush fruity notes. The palette is enriched with flavors of peach, nectarine, honey and a hint of spice, leading to a long and satisfying finish.

Boekenhoutskloof
Boekenhoutskloof Wine Estate is a renowned winery located in the Franschhoek Valley of South Africa. The estate is known for its exceptional quality wines and is considered one of the leading wine producers in the country. Boekenhoutskloof, despite its somewhat unusual African name for the 'French' Franschhoek, was founded three centuries ago by French Huguenots.
The winery was founded in 1776 and is located on a historic estate called Boekenhoutskloof, hence the name of the winery. The estate includes vineyards spread across diverse microclimates, contributing to the diversity and complexity of their wines.
Current winemaker Marc Kent also still has a thing for France. He visits at least once a year to gain new inspiration in the northern Rhône, Cornas. At home in Franschhoek he has made a name for himself with great wines such as Boekenhoutskloof Semillon, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, all of which are among the absolute top in South Africa. But Kent has more strings to his bow. In addition to these showpieces, which are only produced in small quantities, he also makes extremely attractive wines under the names Porcupine Ridge and The Wolftrap that are available to a wider audience. At a slightly higher level, this certainly includes The Chocolate Block.
