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
A translucent burgundy colour in the glass with spicy fruit-driven notes of wild berries, plum and peppery cured meats. Focused, linear tannins on the palate with hints of spicy cured meats and fynbos.
Food Pairing
Slow Cooked Lamb Shoulder, Salsa Verde, whole roasted cauliflower.
