Boekenhoutskloof Syrah 2020

Vineyard and Winemaker Notes:

Grapes for our Boekenhoutskloof Syrah are picked from selected parcels of the finest Syrah, grown at our
Swartland farms, namely Porseleinberg (88%) and Goldmine (12%), close to the small town of
Riebeek-Kasteel. The Porseleinberg vineyards are planted on an extremely hard and rocky bedrock of
decomposed Mica-Schist - a unique terroir within the appellation. The vineyards on Goldmine sit on the
south-western slopes of the Kasteelberg and comprise of Brown Schist with deposits of Table Mountain
Sandstone, which is weathered and washed from the adjacent mountain. The delicate combination of these
two properties allow for this expression of both concentrated and structured wines, made from this Rhône
grape.
