Somm Note
Winemaker Notes
Enticing aromas of blackcurrant and spice lead to bright, juicy flavors of ripe plum and blackberry, enhanced by a spicy nutmeg and clove character with signature Bordeaux notes of tobacco and forest floor.
Professional Ratings
-
Wine Spectator
Solidly ripe, but stylish, with a whiff of mint running through the red currant, blackberry and tobacco notes. A sanguine edge checks in on the finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec.

Widely recognized as one of South Africa's most iconic producers, Mulderbosch is well-known for its Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc, Rose and its Bordeaux blend - The Faithful Hound - and is located east of Cape Town in the Stellenbosch Hills. Stellenboxch has a Mediterranean climate that is largely impacted by the confluence of the Atlantic and Indian Oceans, with long, warm summers and cool windy afternoons. Recently acquired by Charles Banks, an American, Mulderbosch has entered an exciting new era of quality. A newly-assembled team promises to re-introduce wine lovers to the many charms of this approachable, easy-drinking, collection of affordable, fun wines. South Africa provokes an unbelieveable platform for making some of the best white wine values in the world.
