The Wolftrap is a tribute to the pioneers who in the early days ventured into the Cape wilderness and erected a wolf trap on Boekenhoutskloof. To date, no wolf either real or mystical, has been seen in the valley. The Wolftrap - a Boekenhoutskloof original. Our classic blend again comprised our favourite three Mediterranean varieties, Syrah, Mourvèdre and a dash of Viognier.
Taste: Brambles, blackberry and liquorice flavours intertwine with hints of raw biltong on the palate, and the fruitcake spiciness of the nose follows through beautifully. The midpalate is velvety and brooding, with juicy cranberry fruit, vibrant acidity and integrated, silky oak tannins creating exceptional balance. Savoury nuances add to the layered complexity of the wine, with accents of black olive tapenade and cassis lingering on a smooth, round finish
Appearance: Dark and dense.
Aroma: The nose is opulent and intense, oozing with rich, ripe dark fruits and plums and subtle whiffs of cloves, cardamon, black pepper and perfume.
Grape variety: Syrah, Mourvèdre, Viognier
