About this Item

2005 Noble Late Harvest
1 (1 x 1) 375ml

Boekenhoutskloof was established in 1776 and since it’s modern era makeover in 1993 it has been under the guidance of maverick spirit, Marc Kent. Unafraid to experiment with the unconventional, Marc is the chief winemaker and driving force behind the dynamic farm, co-founded by the similarly innovative late Tim Rands.

The Semillon vineyard was planted at Boekenhoutskloof in 1997. This vineyard is situated on the banks of the Franschhoek River and has the perfect mesoclimate for proliferation of Botrytis cinerea.

Critics Ratings

‘Rich and unctuous apricot, quince and sundried green apples, lifted by the most pleasing natural line of acidity that also carries the lasting finish. Fruit driven and delicious, the 2005 is actually still mostly primary fruit, with just slight suggestions of honey and crème brulee that will unfold with further ageing.’ – Higgo Jacobs 2020, 96/100
