Tasting Note

This medium- to full-bodied wine has attractive aromas of mulberry leaves, cassis and cedar. These follow through on the palate which has a firm structure, grainy tannins, and hints of peppercorns and tobacco. The finish is dry, layered and long.

Product Notes

Leeu Passant Stellenbosch Dry Red Wine is an exceptional wine that offers a sensory experience unlike any other. Crafted in one of South Africa's most famous wine regions, this red blend boasts a beautiful deep ruby hue and an exquisitely complex bouquet of blackcurrants, mulberries, and spice. On the palate, expect flavors of dark fruit, tobacco, and leather, all balanced with a subtle acidity and firm tannins. The finish is impressively long and satisfying, leaving a depth of flavor that lingers long after the last sip. This wine pairs perfectly with grilled meats or hearty stews and promises to impress the most discerning wine enthusiast.

About the Winery

Leeu Passant

The Mullineux family, quite well known in the South African wine market, set up their label, Mullineux Family Wines, in 2007. Chris and Andrea Mullineux managed this estate from one of the wine-rich regions of South Africa, Swartland. For quite some time, the couple was trying to use the potential of wines from the regions outside Swartland for their label. The search ended in 2013.
