The 2022 SMV Shiraz Mourvèdre Viognier blend comprises 80% Shiraz, 19% Mourvèdre and 1% Viognier. It is an intriguing ensemble of coffee toffee, mocha and bacon brûlée aromas. It displays a bold, spiced and dark red-fruited profile with a substantial mouthfeel. Notes of roasted coffee beans and lavender enrich the palate, culminating in a food-friendly finish. The wine's bacon-berry aromas are unconventional yet harmoniously integrated; indeed, it is a unique profile that works together while challenging traditional flavor norms.

Key characteristics
About this wine
Diemersfontein's Thokozani is a distinctive red blend from Stellenbosch, combining Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Viognier in a full-bodied style that reflects the region's sun-drenched terroir. The winery, situated in one of South Africa's most prestigious wine districts, crafts wines that balance power with elegance, drawing on decades of expertise in blending these Mediterranean-inspired varieties.
This wine showcases the signature character of Stellenbosch reds: rich depth with subtle complexity. The combination of Syrah's bold fruit and structure, Mourvèdre's earthiness, and Viognier's aromatic lift creates a wine suited to serious dining. At 14% alcohol with medium acidity, it offers approachability without compromising sophistication.
Pair Thokozani with grilled meats, rich game dishes, or aged cheeses. It's an excellent choice for villa dinners, fine dining occasions, or as a standout selection for well-appointed wine collections.
