About this product
Boekenhoutskloof's flagship, one of South Africa's greatest Syrhas: from cooler, high-altitude Franschhoek vineyards, it displays the Northern Rhône character of violet, white pepper, and dark olive alongside dense black fruit and a remarkable mineral finish. Consistently among South Africa's top-rated wines.

complement
Boekenhoutskloof Syrah's power and complexity can stand up to pungent washed-rind cheese; quince paste bridges the wine's fruit while walnut bread grounds the pairing.
