Boekenhoutskloof, Western Cape (South Africa) 2017

May 2, 2018

By Michael Franz

 Paying ten bucks for this wine borders on stealing.  A blend of Viognier, Chenin Blanc and Grenache Blanc, it shows generous aromas and flavors reminiscent of pears and peaches, with interesting spicy accents.  Dramatic but focused at once, which is not easy to achieve at any price.
