Spice Route

Spice Route is a pioneering Swartland estate that helped put this now-celebrated South African region on the map. Championing Mediterranean varieties and old bush vines, it crafts bold, characterful wines of real value. The warm, dry Swartland and its granite and schist soils are ideal for Rhône and Iberian grapes, farmed as low-yielding, unirrigated bush vines. The winemaking is generous yet balanced, capturing the region ripe fruit and savoury character. The range spans juicy Grenache, savoury Mourvedre, ripe Pinotage and old-vine Chenin Blanc, crowned by the flagship Chakalaka blend of Mediterranean varieties. Bold, characterful and superb value, Spice Route offers a genuine taste of the Swartland exciting, sun-drenched style.
