Collection: Boekenhoutskloof 2022 Release

We are delighted to be able to offer the latest 2022 releases from this fabulous South African estate.

Founded in 1776, Boekenhoutskloof remains located in the extreme and furthest corner or edge of the breath-taking Franschhoek Valley in South Africa. The winery’s name refers to the ravine of a Cape Beech tree indigenous to the area, known as Boekenhout. The tree has always been a prized material making high-quality furniture. 

The venture of Boekenhoutskloof began in 1993 when the homestead and farm got purchased and restored by Marc Kent. He started a planting program to create a new and unique vineyard with modern technologies and superior grapevines. Today, Marc serves as the winery’s owner, with Boekenhoutskloof being one of the oldest in Franschhoek Valley. His vineyards now are entirely planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache, Viognier, Syrah, Cabernet Franc, and Semillion. It has also seen phenomenal development to become one of the best wine estates in South Africa since 1996.

We only have small quantities of the 2022 release. Please note that because our allocations of the Boekenhoutskloof Semillon 2022 and Noble Late Harvest 2022 are tiny we can only offer them as part of the 8-bottle mixed case.

Semiilon 2022

19/20 Matthew Juke: "This ancient vine Semillon (with its hints of blushing Muscat) has never looked more alluring.  The expansive but slender chassis gives way to a brittle, teasing finish, and the floral, silver needle, and jasmine notes are overwhelmingly rhythmic and hypnotic.  2022 Boek Sem experience is like no other Semillon on earth.

Noble Late Harvest 2021

97 Tim Atkin MW. "The only wine at Boekenhoutskloof that comes from the vineyards around the winery, this late-picked Semillon was affected by what Gottried Mocke calls "clean botrytis". More Jurançon than Sauternes in style, it has pear tart and crystallised fruit flavours, subtle vanilla and cinnamon spices from new barrels and a lovely interplay between 156 grams of sugar and racy acidity. 2025-30"
