Great Heart
Great Heart wines have a natural intensity, complexity, and a true sense of place. Each wine reflects the characteristics and potential of the vineyards in which they grow, and we are proud to practise sustainable farming all-round. In the pursuit to find a sustainable way to realise a mechanism for equity and meaningful transformation, Chris and Andrea Mullineux’s vision came to life in creating Great Heart Wines. The company is owned by the employees of Mullineux & Leeu Family Wines and profits from sales of all Great Heart wines go directly to the staff who are the shareholders of the company. Why the Wagtail bird as the symbol of Great Heart? The African Wagtail is known in South African folklore for its acts of selflessness and bravery in assisting others and has been chosen as the symbol of Great Heart Wines. The artwork was designed by celebrated local artist Jaco Sieberhagen.
Description
Deep garnet red with attractive aromas of elderberries and red currant leaf. The broad midpalate is cupped by silky tannins and intricate layers of plums, graphite and pomegranate and it finishes with a gentle, yet lingering array of mulberry coulis and light cocoa dust. Best served at 16-18 ˚C.
Food Pairing
The wine pairs well with roasted meats and root vegetables as well as creamy pasta dishes.
