The 2024 Goldmine is made by Boekenhoutskloof, one of South Africa’s most acclaimed producers and the estate behind the cult favourite Chocolate Block. This wine is its white counterpart, a sister wine that mirrors the same philosophy of blending to capture the soul of the Cape’s vineyards.
In the glass, the nose is fresh yet complex, with enticing aromas of quince, poached pear, and nectarine, supported by subtle notes of bruised apple and delicate baking spice. On the palate, the vibrant stone fruit and citrus flavours unfold with precision, framed by a harmonious interplay of oak-matured Semillon, lending structure and longevity; Swartland Chenin Blanc, adding texture and richness; cool-climate Chardonnay, bringing brightness and lift; and a touch of Viognier, contributing perfumed aromatics.
The 2024 Goldmine White is an enduring expression of South Africa’s viticultural diversity, crafted for those who seek the same character, depth, and timeless appeal that have made The Chocolate Block a global icon.
