Regional Information

The Porcupine Ridge brand has its origins in the natural environment of the farm and the ongoing efforts to conserve the biodiversity on the property and the surrounding mountains. In addition to a number of rare fauna and flora species - such as the erica lerouxiae which is endemic to Boekenhoutskloof. The farm is home to a several Crested Porcupine families, which are however rarely seen due to their nocturnal lifestyle.

Vinification Details

Our Chardonnay is sourced from vineyards planted in deep, ancient soils, resulting in a rich, textured wine. Our growing regions of Stellenbosch, Breedekloof and Robertson all delivered exemplary fruit. Gentle winemaking with little intervention has produced an approachable wine. The grapes were harvested at different ripeness levels aiming for freshness, fruit character, balance and structure. We opted for subtle oak usage to emphasise the fresh citrus fruit flavours.

History

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.
