Spice Route

Spice Route is owned by winemaker Charles Back with vineyards in both Malmesbury and Darling, North-West of Paarl in the Swartland district. Deep rooted unirrigated bush vines, moderated by cool Atlantic breezes, produce exceptionally ripe and full flavoured wines with great balance.



Other reviews and comments
Having established Fairview in Paarl, Charles Back founded the Spice Route Wine Company back in 1997 after acquiring a farm in Malmesbury. His aim was to source fruit that had been traditionally sold to co-ops and exploit the untapped potential of the region. The company expanded into Darling in 2005 to source Sauvignon Blanc from its cool surrounding hills, which has since been complemented by Shiraz, Chenin Blanc and Semillon. This was a good range of wines, especially the Chakalaka considering the price point, although I felt that the flagship Malabar was trying too hard to make an impression.

2008 SPICE ROUTE Mourvèdre
2008 SPICE ROUTE Mourvèdre
Swartland South Africa
The Spice Route wines are a new introduction to our list this Autumn and proving to be a great hit. This Mourvedre is warm and spicy, very much fruit led and without too much power. Appealing to any Rhône drinker and fabulous value.

2009 CHAKALAKA Spice Route

This catchily named wine (after South Africa's unique spicy relish) is a very well made Rhone style blend with lovely fruit and well integrated oak. Serious value too.

An amazingly well controlled Viognier for the Southern Hemisphere. Peach stone fruit, good texture and a tight, dry finish.
