PRODUCT INFORMATION
Boekenhoutskloof was established in 1776. Located in the furthest corner of the
beautiful Franschhoek valley, the farm’s name means “ravine of the Boekenhout”. The
svelte lady is the figurehead of Boekenhoutskloof. She is an adaptation of an early
silver hallmark of the Cape of Good Hope and she carries the dove of peace and
hope. Guarding over Boekenhoutskloof, she represents intrinsic quality.
