Winemaker: Jozua Joubert

Jozua Joubert is the winemaker behind Smokkelman wines. With over 20 years of experience in the South African wine industry, Jozua has a strong focus on crafting wines that reflect the unique terroir and climate of the region.

Region: Stellenbosch, South Africa

The Smokkelman Red Blend 2020 comes from the renowned Stellenbosch wine region, known for its diverse terroir and Mediterranean climate. The combination of well-drained soils, warm days, and cool nights allows the grapes to develop rich and complex flavors, making Stellenbosch a prime region for producing high-quality red wines.

 

Climate:

The climate in Stellenbosch is characterized by warm to hot summers and mild winters, with cooling influences from the nearby ocean. This Mediterranean climate provides an ideal environment for grape cultivation, allowing for slow, even ripening and development of complex flavors and aromas.

 

Wine Characteristics:

  • Blend: A harmonious blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (dominant) and Cinsaut, each contributing distinct flavors and characteristics to the overall profile of the wine
  • Acidity: Medium to high acidity, providing structure and balance
  • Fruitiness: Prominent red flavors, such as red cherry, blackberry, and plum, derived from the Cabernet Sauvignon and Cinsaut grapes
  • Body: Medium to full-bodied, with a smooth and velvety texture
  • Tannins: Moderate to low tannins, contributing to the structure and aging potential of the wine
  • Finish: Medium to long finish, with lingering fruit, spice, and oak notes

 

The Story of Smokkelman White Blend:
