About this Item

Boekenhoutskloof
2005 The Journeyman
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.

This was the debut release of this Bordeaux blend and it is still full of elegance and poise after nearly 15 years.

Critics Ratings

‘Gorgeous aromas of freshly brewed Kenya AA coffee, cedar and warm, shaved vanilla lead to a supple, focused beam of red currant, plum sauce, mineral and sanguine notes. Long and very fine-grained, with a lingering hint of mesquite that stretches out the alluring finish. 120 cases made.’  -Wine Spectator, 94/100
