Sensory Description:
The 2022 Kloof Street Rouge opens with aromas of dark berries, plum, and subtle florals. On the palate, juicy black and red fruits are layered with notes of spice and a touch of earthiness. Each component plays its part: Cinsault brings lift and perfume, Grenache adds fruit-driven charm, Tinta Barocca contributes structure, and Syrah binds the blend with depth and savory backbone. The wine is balanced, supple, and vibrant, finishing with a gentle spiced note that lingers.
Winemaker's Background:
Founded in 2007 by Chris and Andrea Mullineux, Mullineux & Leeu Family Wines has become one of South Africa’s most celebrated producers. Rooted in Swartland near Riebeek Kasteel, the winery champions sustainable viticulture and minimal-intervention winemaking. Native yeasts, careful fermentations, and maturation in seasoned French oak allow their wines to transparently express the region’s unique shale, schist, and granite soils. With numerous accolades from international critics, Mullineux has played a pivotal role in elevating Swartland’s global reputation.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve slightly cool at 15–16 °C to showcase freshness and fruit purity. The 2022 Kloof Street Rouge pairs beautifully with grilled lamb, roast chicken with Mediterranean herbs, or vegetarian dishes such as ratatouille and roasted aubergine. It also complements charcuterie boards and aged cheeses. Best enjoyed now through the next 2–3 years for its youthful vibrancy and balance.
The 2022 Mullineux ‘Kloof Street’ Rouge stands as a vibrant snapshot of Swartland, approachable yet refined, crafted with precision, and ready to bring both everyday meals and festive gatherings to life.
