With a Bordeaux red colour, the Boekenhoutskloof Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon flows into the glass and pampers the senses with an uncommon opulence, excellent structure and youthful elegance. Hints of wild berries, dark cassis and fine spices characterize this noble drop. Its refined tannins are well integrated and indicate a remarkable ageing potential.

The grapes for the Boekenhoutskloof Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon were hand-picked and transported in small crates to the winery, where they were first hand-picked and destemmed with great care. For fermentation, the grapes were placed in stainless steel tanks where they were first subjected to a cold swelling phase and then fermented at 27-30°C. Once the alcoholic fermentation was completed, the wine was transferred to 225 l barrels for malolactic fermentation. The wine matured in French barriques from the house of Sylvain and Saury and was slightly refined with egg white before bottling.
