DESCRIPTION
The Tamboerskloof Meevaller Mourvèdre 2019 presents a light color with enticing aromas of strawberry and spice, suggesting a lighthearted character. However, notes of leather, tobacco, and mocha hint at something deeper. The fresh entry brings sour cherry and strawberry flavors, leading to a mid-palate with good weight and round texture, layered with oak, vanilla, and spice. The lingering finish, with hints of chocolate and cherry, remains focused due to balanced acidity. This wine is an exceptional blend of texture, freshness, and depth.
REGION
Stellenbosch
South Africa
Stellenbosch is undoubtedly South Africa’s most prestigious wine region. Located in the coastal region of the Western Cape, east of Cape Town, it enjoys a Mediterranean climate tempered by sea breezes and sheltered by surrounding mountains. Its varied terroir – granite, shale, and sandy soils – allows for the production of both powerful red wines and elegant whites.
While Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux-style blends (with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot) have built its reputation, Stellenbosch is also renowned for its refined Chenin Blancs, distinctive Chardonnays, and expressive Syrahs. Home to many iconic estates, this appellation remains a showcase of South African winemaking expertise.
Recommended for you:
For the red, a South African Mourvèdre — I’d pair it with a ribeye steak. It's a very balanced wine with smooth tannins. Powerful, yet highly complex thanks to its oak barrel aging.
