Boekenhoutskloof Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 is a monovarietal wine from the Stellenbosch region of South Africa. The grapes are 100% destemmed and the wine is aged for 22 months in 60% new French oak. The nose presents a structured bouquet with dark fruit notes alongside subtle herbal undertones. The palate is medium-bodied, displaying fine tannins that integrate progressively over time. The finish offers a chalky texture, characteristic of the region`s terroir.

Here`s an interesting side-by-side tasting of Cabernet Sauvignon from Stellenbosch versus Franschhoek. The wine I tasted first is the Boekenhoutskloof 2022 Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon, aged in barrique for 18 months. Stellenbosch tends to have more vigor and naturally high pyrazines. Farming often involves open canopies, and Cabernet Sauvignon is picked two weeks earlier here compared to Franschhoek. The wines show immediate richness and complexity. No Cabernet Franc is added to this wine because Stellenbosch fruit is spicy on its own, so putting the two grapes together would be overkill. This wine has a tight vein of green herb and rosemary that contributes to a very vertical and intense presentation with a core of black and purple fruits. Vinification for the two Cabernet Sauvignons is basically the same.

The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Stellenbosch is 100% destemmed and aged for 22 months in 60% new French oak. It has a well-defined, more Bordeaux-like bouquet, with touches of pencil lead infusing the black fruit. It unfurls nicely in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, a little oaky at the moment though that will be subsumed with time. Again, it’s quite Left Bank in style, with impressive tension and a slightly chalky-textured finish. As usual, I prefer this to the Franschhoek blend. Neal Martin1st September 2024

Hand-harvested, destemmed grapes underwent a cold maceration and spontaneous fermentation in tulip-shaped concrete tanks, followed by malolactic conversion in 225-litre barriques. The wine was then matured on their OXOline system for 22 months in French oak (60% new). RS 2.58 g/l, TA 5.18 g/l, pH 3.73.A bit more purple in colour than the Franschhoek Cabernet. Juicy boysenberry and blackcurrant, incense smoke and tobacco notes. There`s also an interesting saline character on the palate. The tannins feel bigger and more mouth-filling, but also softer and less grainy, than those of the Franschhoek Cabernet. This is juicier, plusher and more approachable now than its counterpart from Franschhoek, but it still has the structure to age nicely. (JRL)
