"I taste at Boekenhoutskloof’s Franschhoek tasting room set against a stunning mountain backdrop and join (by appointment) an extensive 90‑minute communal tasting hosted by the winemaker that showcases Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and the cult-favorite The Chocolate Block (most of whose grapes come from Swartland vineyards); the estate also sells old vintages at its small town shop and bar, Invincible." - Nina Caplan
