Boekenhoutskloof’s Syrah is sourced from parcels of the finest Syrah cultivated in their Swartland farms, primarily from Porseleinberg [88%] and Goldmine [12%] near Riebeek-Kasteel. Porseleinberg vineyards boast a distinctive terroir of decomposed Mica-Schist, while Goldmine vineyards, situated on the slopes of Kasteelberg, feature Brown Schist with Table Mountain Sandstone deposits. It is a particular combination that produces a concentrated and structured expression of this quintessentially Rhône variety.

- The 2021 Syrah was picked later than the 2020. It contains more whole bunches than prior vintages (65%) and matured for 18 months, 90% in Stockinger foudre and Stockinger demi-muids. This is quite concentrated on the nose with dark berry fruit, bay leaf and white pepper, perhaps less floral than some of its peers. The aromatics feel tightly coiled at the moment. The palate is smooth and harmonious on the entry, with a fine structure. It is compact at the moment with cracked black and white pepper and garrigues notes flourishing toward the persistent finish. Much more backward than expected, I would cellar this for three to five years before cracking open as it`s a serious Syrah.
