The Mitre Red Blend

Name: Guillermo Pinotage

Vintage Year: 2017

Rating Vivino: 4

Type: Red Wine

Grape Type: Pinotage

Tasting Notes: A beguiling wine with rich, spicy red berry and black cherry aromas, evident ripe tannins and a long, complex finish.

Story of Wine: Certified organic grapes from the Kasteelsig vineyard which is primarily red Glenrosa soil with some Oakleaf - both shale rich duplex soils, and these vines are not irrigated, also includes sustainably-farmed grapes from Leeuwenkuil’s top Swartland vineyards. The grapes were hand-picked into small baskets and taken to the cellar. After four days cold-soaking, approximately 30% was whole-bunch fermented in open bins and hand punched four times a day. The rest was fermented in a rototank. No commercial yeast was used as these grapes ferment well with their natural yeast. The wine matured in a mixture of French and American oak barrels for 18 months, 25% new wood.

WFAS06R - Kevin Arnold Shiraz 750ml

Kevin Arnold Shiraz 750ml

Name: Syrah

Vintage Year: 2017

Rating Vivino: 3.9

Type: Red Wine

Grape Type: Syrah

Tasting Notes: This is a full-bodied, spicy Syrah with fresh red fruit and intriguing savoury notes.  Well balanced acidity and tannins lend richness to the wine which has a lingering, complex finish

Story of Wine: The grapes came from two sites – Kasteelsig where the organic grapes are dry farmed and soil is primarily Glenrosa, a composite of decomposed shale with a little granite, and Leeuwenkuil, with similar soils and vines over 25 years old. Sustainable farming practices are used. The grapes were handpicked and gently handled. We fermented the Syrah in small open bins with hand punch downs several times a day. The wine matured in French and Hungarian oak for a total of 14 months

PWSS03R - Syrah

Syrah

Name: Meinert "Printers Ink" Pinotage

Vintage Year: 2017

Rating Vivino: 3.7

Type: Red Wine

Grape Type: Pinotage

Tasting Notes: Medium structure with a rich, full-bodied yet elegant mid-palate and a clean fresh finish

Story of Wine: Old, unirrigated bushvines planted on deep, rich Hutton soils at 280m above sea level on south-facing slopes yield smaller volumes (5 – 6 tons/ha) of intensely concentrated fruit. The vineyard canopy is managed to ensure minimal direct sunlight exposure of the bunches and as such enhance the finer, elegant nuances of our Printer’s Ink Pinotage. Our unobstructed proximity to False Bay allows for cooling afternoon sea breezes which enable a slower ripening period and improved evolution of flavor in the bunches

Pairing: Enjoy with ostrich tartare, venison kebabs on rooibos noodles and surprisingly, when slightly chilled, with sushi or seared tuna

MWPI06R - Meinert Printers Ink Pinotage

Meinert &quot;Printers Ink&quot; Pinotage

Name: Meinert Merlot

Vintage Year: 2017

Rating Vivino: 3.8

Type:  Red Wine

Grape Type: Merlot

Tasting Notes: As our vines mature with every passing vintage so the wines become richer and more textured without the fear of clumsy, dull fruit expression. Our focus on ‘turbo charged’ Merlot’s that bridge the gap between the New and Old Worlds is still very much the focal point. 

Story of Wine: Fermented with natural yeasts and made in classic, minimal interventionist manner with no extended skin maceration. All the components were vinified separately and matured for 18 months in a selection of first, second, third and fourth fill French oak barrels and racked at intervals as necessary

Pairing: Ideal to enjoy with game birds like quail, guinea fowl and duck. Lamb suits the wine’s herbal touches.

MWGR09W - The German Job - Riesling

&quot;The German Job&quot; Riesling

Name: Meinert Cabernet Sauvignon

Vintage Year: 2017

Rating Vivino: 3.7

Type:  Red Wine

Grape Type: Cabernet Sauvignon

Tasting Notes: The nose displays red berries, typical Cabernet herbs, spicy toasty oak and tobacco. Mouth filling but soft on entry, lingers gently and long on the finish. 

Story of Wine: Fermented with natural yeasts, made in classic low intervention manner, no extended skin maceration. Aged for 24 months in new (15%), second and third fill French Oak barrels. In keeping with a naturalist approach to winemaking, this wine is lightly filtered prior bottling in the spring of 2019 and as such a harmless sediment may develop over time

Pairing: Should match well with Tuscan style veal, wild boar or warthog with truffled mash and of course a well-aged piece of beef like prime rib, especially with reduced rich sauces. Or venison – we enjoyed it with eland
