The Goldmine White 2024<\/strong> is the latest release from Boekenhoutskloof<\/strong> and combines Marc Kent\u2019s<\/strong> signature style with the elegance of the Swartland\u2019s finest white-wine sites. Considered the white sibling of the Chocolate Block, this wine represents a new generation of South African white wines that unite depth, tension, and modern precision. Following the success of the Chocolate Block, expectations were naturally high. Early tastings clearly show that Goldmine White not only meets these expectations, but in many ways surpasses them.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”1px|||||” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″] With the Chocolate Block<\/strong>, Marc Kent created a cult wine that ranks among the most successful South African blends worldwide. The idea of a white-wine counterpart had existed for some time, but Kent waited for the right moment and the right fruit. With Goldmine White 2024, this vision became reality. The wine translates the philosophy of the Chocolate Block into white<\/strong>, demonstrating how confidently Boekenhoutskloof combines character, drinkability, and quality.<\/p> This heritage shapes its style and gives it the depth expected of a wine with the potential to follow in the footsteps of the Chocolate Block.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/kapweine.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Screenshot-2025-12-10-102618.png” _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” title_text=”Marc Kent” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″ custom_padding=”3px|||||”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″] The success of the Chocolate Block has shown how consistently Marc Kent not only recognises trends, but shapes them. The same expectation surrounds Goldmine White 2024. The wine offers everything that defines a modern South African white wine: expressiveness, elegance, tension<\/strong>, and an impressive sense of balance<\/strong>. Demand is likely to rise quickly, as Goldmine White already displays the qualities that could make it a new crowd favourite.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/kapweine.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Everything-You-Need-To-Know-About-the-Wines-of-South-Africa-FT-BLOG0822-2000-7dcc547724fa40f5a589df8f0223e3f3.jpg” _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” title_text=”Everything-You-Need-To-Know-About-the-Wines-of-South-Africa-FT-BLOG0822-2000-7dcc547724fa40f5a589df8f0223e3f3″ hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″] The wine captures the spirit of the times and builds on what has made Boekenhoutskloof so successful for years: showing character, respecting origin, and at the same time creating an experience that leaves a lasting impression on wine lovers. Anyone who appreciates the Chocolate Block will find the perfect complement in Goldmine White.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″] Goldmine White 2024 presents itself as a highly precise, energetic white wine, combining a creamy texture with fresh acidity. Aromas range from white peach and pear to citrus blossom and subtle mineral nuances. On the palate, it is both supple and structured. It shows substance while remaining focused and linear throughout.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/kapweine.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/sauvignon-blanc.png” _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” title_text=”sauvignon-blanc” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″] This balance makes it particularly versatile. It pairs beautifully with aromatic dishes or can be enjoyed on its own. The style clearly reflects the experience of the Boekenhoutskloof team. Every step from harvest to barrel ageing has been carefully chosen to allow the wine to express its origin with transparency.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_column _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” type=”4_4″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″] Top Rating<\/strong><\/span> The nose is fresh and complex, with inviting aromas of quince, poached pear, and nectarine, alongside subtle notes of bruised apple and baking spices. Stone fruit and citrus notes continue on the lively, complex palate. A vibrant yet well-integrated acidity balances the juicy fruit and delicate oak nuances on the mid-palate, while hints of ginger and cinnamon add further depth.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”18px|auto||auto||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″] Goldmine White 2024 is a strong indication of where South African white wine is heading. It represents the country\u2019s modern style and, as the white counterpart to the Chocolate Block, marks a new era at Boekenhoutskloof. Clear structure, fine texture, and a signature unmistakably shaped by Marc Kent make it one of the most exciting new releases of the year. This wine has the potential to build a following just as loyal as that of its famous red sibling.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/shop.kapweine.ch\/weine\/rotweine?dir=asc&order=name&weingut=653″ button_text=”About the wines from Boekenhoutskloof” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_divider color=”#000000″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Goldmine White 2024 is the white sibling of the Chocolate Block and clearly reflects Marc Kent\u2019s unmistakable signature.
