Boekenhoutskloof, fact sheet (hentet 18. okt. 2026): 2014 Boekenhoutskloof Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon – område: Stellenbosch; druer: Cabernet Sauvignon; alkohol 13.9%. Producentens noter (engelsk): Our Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon, with 8% Cabernet Franc, is selected from a selection of sites on the north-westerly facing slopes of the Helderberg. Soil: Table Mountain Sandstone Winemaking Philosophy (Vinification & Winemaker’s Comments) Grapes picked by hand into small boxes, hand sorted and gently de-stalked. In stainless steel fer- mentation vessels, the grapes underwent a cold maceration, and then fermented at temperatures between 27 and 30˚C, frequently pumped over to extract aromas, colour and tannin. After alcoholic fermentation a prolonged malolactic fermentation occurred naturally, in 225 litre barriques. The wine was matured in French oak barrique, from our preferred coopers Sylvain and Saury, and under- went a light egg white fining prior to bottling.
