Noble Late Harvest, Boekenhoutskloof 2021

Tasting Notes

The only wine at Boekenhoutskloof that comes from the vineyards around the winery, this late-picked Semillon was affected by what Gottried Mocke calls "clean botrytis". More Jurançon than Sauternes in style, it has pear tart and crystallised fruit flavours, subtle vanilla and cinnamon spices from new barrels and a lovely interplay between 156 grams of sugar and racy acidity. 2025-30
