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 that now includes Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Grenache, Semillon and Viognier.
The Wolftrap is a project of Marc Kent and is produced at Boekenhoutskloof, established in 1776 in the furthest corner of the Franschhoek valley, once wild and untamed. A wolf trap was discovered on the property, hence the name “The Wolftrap.” While today, the mountains are still alive with indigenous animals, including the majestic leopard, no evidence of wolves has ever been found. A wine drawn from legend, The Wolftrap produces a red, a white, and a rosé wine from Rhône grape varietals and all certified sustainable by the Integrated Production of Wine.
