A good red wine is always worth having on hand, and the Spice Route Mourvèdre 2025 Case of 6 gives you six bottles to enjoy at your own pace. Whether you're adding to your wine collection or preparing for a gathering, this case brings a distinctive Swartland wine to the table.
The grapes come from organically farmed, unirrigated bush vines planted in 2001. Rooted in the Swartland's rich Koffieklip and Oakleaf soils, these vineyards produce an average of just 3.5 tons per hectare.
The 2025 growing season benefited from above-average winter rainfall in 2024. As a result, the vines enjoyed favourable conditions that helped develop the wine's depth and complexity.
In the cellar, the grapes undergo a seven-day fermentation in open concrete tanks, with regular manual punch-downs. Afterwards, the wine matures in seasoned French and American oak barrels. A small portion also spends time in traditional clay qvevri, adding texture and complexity.
With six bottles to enjoy, you can open one now and keep the others ready for future occasions.
