Our lead story this month comes from award-winning Boekenhoutskloof Winery, home to the supremely popular Chocolate Block, a wine that continues to fly the flag for SA wine across international markets. Technical Director, Marc Kent tells Enterprise Africa more about the journey from 6000 bottles in the beginning to more than six million bottles today.
Boekenhoutskloof is a multi-property award-winning winemaking business located across Swartland, Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and Hermanus. When Marc Kent started his three-decade long career in South Africa’s wine industry, he had no idea where the grapes of the Western Cape would take him.
