Porcupine Ridge Sauvignon Blanc

Porcupine Ridge Sauvignon Blanc is the entry-level line from Boekenhoutskloof, one of South Africa's renowned wineries, known for its knack for balancing price and quality. The grapes come from the Western Cape, that climatically versatile region around Franschhoek and Stellenbosch, where cool nights preserve freshness and varietal typicity in the grapes.

In the glass, the wine shows aromas of soursop and passion fruit, plus green notes of nettles and freshly cut grass — typical for cool-harvested Sauvignon Blanc. On the palate, it appears dense and mineral; the acidity carries the fruit without sharpness, and the finish remains dry and clearly structured.

Serve it at 8 to 10 degrees, ideally in a slender white wine glass. It accompanies goat cheese, green asparagus, seafood, or an uncomplicated fish platter and is also suitable as an aperitif for a relaxed evening among friends.

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.
