Boekenhoutskloof ‘The Wolftrap’ Shiraz 2023/24 South Africa

Love big, bold reds? Then you’ve likely heard of The Chocolate Block – an iconic fine wine known the world over. Boekenhoutskloof is the brilliant winery behind it, and their ‘Wolftrap’ range is another fantastic way to enjoy their talents – at a wallet-friendly price. Their Shiraz vines thrive in the Mediterranean climate of the Cape Winelands. Here, warm and dry growing conditions lend themselves to a distinctive style of Shiraz with bright fruit flavours. Expect intense aromas of rich dark fruit and savoury notes of spice and black pepper. Its velvety fruit character is balanced by a vibrant acidity. Best enjoyed with roasted or barbecued dishes.
