Cabernet Sauvignon Stellenbosch

From Helderberg, the northwestern slopes of Stellenbosch, comes this Cabernet Sauvignon from Boekenhoutskloof — one of the most famous wineries in the Cape region, known since the 1990s for its meticulously crafted red wines with aging potential.

The grapes grow on the granite and sandstone soils of the Helderberg, which wine connoisseurs like to call the "Médoc of Stellenbosch"—because of the cool sea breeze from the Indian Ocean, which slows down ripening and sharpens the aromatics. Aging in French barriques gives the wine structure without overpowering the fruit.

In the glass, it displays blackberry, cassis, and a hint of cedar, along with dark spice notes. On the palate, it is full-bodied, yet with a fine tannin structure and good extract—not a behemoth, but a well-balanced wine. The finish is long and subtly spicy.

The Winery

Boekenhoutskloof

Boekenhoutskloof was founded as early as 1776 in the "farthest corner" of the beautiful Franschhoek Valley. The "French Corner" (Franschhoek) has preserved much of the French way of life, and thus the wine cultivation is also based on French roots.

The name "Boekenhoutskloof" means something like "ravine of the Cape beeches" and was then also made famous under this name by winemaker Marc Kent.

The most well-known grape variety is the Syrah grape, but Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Grenache, Semillon, and Viognier are also part of the portfolio.

Find the right wine faster – with our picks

Row above the wines with the “Our picks” button open and three Super Tuscans

You can now find the right wine faster. Above the wines in every category there is one row that brings it all together: Our picks, Occasion, Goes with, Wine style, Filters and Sort by.

Row above the wines with Filters, Our picks, Goes with, Wine style, Bought before and Sort by; the "Our picks" button is open with "Super Tuscan" selected, next to it Tignanello, Le Volte and Le Serre Nuove

  • Our picks. The "Our picks" button comes first. Choose "Great value" to see wines that deliver more than their price suggests. Some of them have been recognised by Falstaff and other critics for exactly that, the others we have picked for you.
  • Super Tuscans. On the Tuscany page, "Our picks" also takes you to the red cult wines that deliberately broke with the old appellation rules: Tignanello, Ornellaia, Sassicaia, Le Volte, Guado al Tasso and many more, from the first step up to large formats.
  • One tap, one choice. Tap "Occasion", "Goes with" or "Wine style" and pick what you are looking for, such as "Aperitif & spritz" or "Fish". The button then shows what is currently selected.
  • Everything at a glance. Whatever you have selected appears right below. Tap the cross to remove it, or "Clear all" to remove everything at once.
  • Always at hand on your phone. The row stays at the top while you scroll, so you can change filters and sorting without scrolling back up.
  • Bought before. When you are logged in, the "Bought before" switch shows which wines in the category you have already bought from us, online or in the shop. Handy when you want to find a favourite again.
