The wine

This Walker Bay Cabernet Franc is one of Gabriëlskloof's finest reds, fragrant and structured from cool Cape South Coast vineyards. It shows the grape's elegant, savoury side.

Blackcurrant, red cherry, violet, graphite and green herb fill an aromatic nose. The palate is medium to full-bodied and fresh, with bright fruit, fine tannins and a long, savoury finish.

Made for roast lamb, beef and hard cheese. Serve at cool room temperature.

View all Gabriëlskloof wines

Gabriëlskloof is a leading estate of Bot River, in South Africa's cool Cape South Coast. Set in the Walker Bay hinterland, it has become known for characterful, terroir-driven wines. Syrah and Chenin Blanc are among its calling cards.

The vineyards lie on shale and sandstone soils, cooled by ocean breezes off the nearby Atlantic. This maritime climate gives the wines freshness, structure and real definition. Farming is careful and increasingly natural.

The range spans crisp Sauvignon Blanc, textured Semillon and Chenin, a pretty Syrah rosé and a spectrum of single-soil Syrahs, alongside Cabernet Franc and a Bordeaux blend. Each expresses its site with clarity. There is real ambition here.

Gabriëlskloof's wines are fresh, characterful and beautifully made. They combine Cape ripeness with cool-climate freshness. One of the bright lights of the Cape South Coast.
