Boekenhoutskloof Semillon 2016

$70.00

Boekenhoutskloof Semillon — a quietly powerful expression from grapes sourced largely from one of South Africa’s oldest vineyards, planted in 1902. Whole-bunch pressing preserves purity and texture; spontaneous fermentation unfolds in a mix of classic barrels and concrete eggs, marrying tradition with mineral-driven clarity. At ten years bottle age, this Semillon sits in a perfect window: lanolin and beeswax warmth underpinned by bright lemon curd acidity, offering a honeyed, saline finish.
