About this product


The 2015 Chakalaka consists of 6 grape varieties blended to produce a wine expressive of place. Each variety contributes in a different way to create this exciting wine. The 2015 growing season was is one of the best season for Swartland vineyards, with sufficient winter rainfalls and late rains in spring. The grapes were in the perfect condition to produce top quality wine with good concentrated colours and flavour profile. Aromas of clove and subtle white pepper followed by plum with hints of elegant spice. A luscious and rich palate followed by smooth, integrated oak and well balanced tannins.

A bold wine like this can hold up to the intense South African flavors of slow-roasted meat (lovely with barbequed pork). Even Asian cuisine flavors, such as plum sauce, will add to the fruitiness in the wine.

46% Syrah, 15% Carignan, 13% Mourve`dre, 10% Tannat, 8% Petite Sirah, and 8% Grenache.
