BOSHENDAL THE PAVILLION

RANGE OF WINES

from SOUTH AFRICA

 

Few places in the world can claim to have all a wine lover could desire. Boschendal  Winery is one such unique destination. Only an hour’s drive from Cape Town, this magnificent winery is situated in the picturesque Groot  Drakenstein Valley, at the gateway to Franschhoek. A veritable feast for the senses, Boschendal lays claim to a proud winemaking tradition stretching back to the late 17thcentury. From award winning wines, to fine dining and exquisite grounds, this world class estate seamlessly blends its rich past with a tireless commitment to constant innovation.

The cool growing conditions produce elegant wines, charming with attractive ripe fruit flavours and well structured mouth feel and character resulting in award winning wines. Boschendal has a large variation of terrior, and a replanting programme, which was started in the early 1990’s, was based on matching premium varietals to specific terrior sites and today we are seeing the benefits of this process.
