Boekenhoutskloof was established in 1776. Located in the furthest corner of the beautiful Franschhoek valley, the farm’s name means “ravine of the Boekenhout” (pronounced Book-n-Howed). Boekenhout is an indigenous Cape Beech tree greatly prized for furniture making.

In 1993 the farm and homestead was bought and restored and a new vineyard planting programme was established that now includes Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Grenache, Semillon and Viognier.

    This is a 10/10 experience. The setting, the service, the knowledge and ability to explain the winemaking process and what makes their wine special in everyday terms made this a favorite during our eight-day Franschhoek experience.

    Amazing experience at Boekenhoutskloof Winery! 🍷 What I enjoyed the most was being able to taste wonderful wines, with great quality and hospitality, without having to pay for the tasting. A true treat for anyone who appreciates good wine!

    Been wanting to do this one for years, finally got around to it with my wife. We loved it, the wine maker explained processes so well and answered all questions. It was great
