Leeu Passant The Leeu Passant 2021

Tasting note:

“Inspired by the great Cabernet Sauvignon-Cinsault blends of the previous century, The Leeu Passant is truly special wine and well worth spending ample time with to enjoy the unique reflection of each portion of the blend. The signature aroma of this Dry Red is bergamot orange, followed by hints of black cherries, violets and bramble. This is highlighted by a firm tannin- structure, textured mid-palate and a beautifully fresh, seamless finish. It will age very well over the next few decades and would be best served at 16-18°C” – Winemaker

Since 2013, Chris and Andrea Mullineux have been working on a new project that focuses on vineyards outside of the Swartland appellation which have been specially selected by Rosa Kruger. Together with their partner Analijt Singh they launched their game changing Leeu Passant wines. Produced from old vines, including the oldest registered red wine vineyard in South Africa, these wines redefine the South African wine landscape. Their inspiration comes from past successes of the 50s, 60s and 70s, like Château Libertas and Rustenberg Dry Red. Their wines speak of South Africa’s heritage and bring the unique wines of the past into the future.

Blend: 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Cabernet Franc, 20% Cinsault
