Spice Route
The new age of the Swartland commenced in 1997 when Charles Back stumbled across an old Tobacco farm Klein Amoskuil. Bewildered by the quality of grapes in a region better known for its wheat and rolling fynbos hills the potential was obvious so Charles set forth to acquire the farm and study its soils and extreme climate. Hence Spice Route Winery was born. Spice Route hand-crafted wines have been brought from the Swartland to the Spice Route Destination in Paarl to be enjoyed by all. Enjoy wine tasting in a rustic underground tasting room or outside under the pergola whilst enjoying the panoramic views of Table Mountain and the Simonsberg Mountain range.
Description
This deep ruby-colored wine presents aromas of clove and subtle white pepper, followed by plum and elegant spice nuances. The medium-bodied palate offers red fruit flavors integrated with oak, balanced acidity, and ripe tannins, suggesting good aging potential.
Food Pairing
This versatile red blend pairs well with grilled meats, hearty stews, and dishes featuring robust flavors. Its balanced acidity and tannin structure complement a variety of cuisines.
