Tim Atkin South African 2026 Special Report – 98 Points

Porseleinberg is one of those wines where the analytical numbers don't make sense, as it has a pH of 4.06 but retains remarkable freshness and acidity, partly from the 100% whole bunch fermentation. Aged in large Stockinger foudres and 10% concrete eggs, it’s a denser wine than the 2023 release, with stony intensity, aromas of clove, fennel and tomato leaf, blackberry and North African spice flavours and seductive tannins. One of the New World’s greatest Syrahs. 2028-40

Porseleinberg

Under the stewardship of Boekenhoutskloof, this Swartland vineyard is the source of one of South Africa's finest red wines. Made from 100% Syrah grown on vines planted in 1997, the schist-rich soils and north-northwest and west-northwest aspects ensure abundant daytime sunshine. The fruit is organically grown and fermented predominantly as whole clusters, with approximately 10% destemmed. The wine is matured for twelve months, 90% in foudre and 10% in concrete eggs.

Since owner Marc Kent acquired the site in 2009, winemaker Callie Louw oversaw production, helping to elevate Porseleinberg to cult status. With Louw’s departure in 2025, his successor is Eben Meiring, of the Boekenhoutskloof winemaking ‘academy’.
