About this Item

2016 Tinta Barocca
6 (1 x 6) 750ml

Inspired by travelling the world of wine and grapes, especially the ancient vineyards of the Old World; Momento Wines was born – “Wines that reflect all the elements involved: the sun, soil, water and earth – along with people, personalities, ideas and experiences.” Momento Wines are made and based in Bot River, a truly authentic and diverse region of South Africa, which Marelise Niemann has called her home since 2007. She is lucky enough to work with vines all over the Western Cape which are unique expressions of their regions and terroir.

The Tinta Barocca 2016 was made from a 43-year-old, south-facing vineyard in Bot River, grown in Bokkeveld shale soil.

Winemakers personal tasting note:

'Fresh red cherries, purple plums and spicy tea leaf notes on the nose with a vibrant and perfumed palate. This wine has a beautiful texture with well-integrated tannins making it a wonderful pairing for a variety of meat and spicy dishes, especially Portuguese food.' - Marelise Niemann
