About this Item

2005 CWG Syrah Auction Reserve
6 (1 x 6) 750ml

Boekenhoutskloof, located in the Franschhoek valley, was established in 1776 and gets its name 'Boekenhout' from an indigenous Beech tree. Boekenhoutskloof, managed by Marc Kent, describes themself as a Syrah specialist. Their efforts in conservation can be seen through initiatives they have taken-on in their farm and surrounding areas. They are also a founding member of the Franschhoek Mountain Conservancy.

Two selected barrels – one new and one 3rd fill French oak. Natural fermentation followed by 27 months in barrique. From Wellington vineyards.
Tasting note: Ripe, spicy aromatic nose, with hints of cloves and pepper. Full and rich palate with good lengthy finish.
