Jordan Chameleon Cabernet Merlot 2024
Bordeaux Blend
Description
Nestled at the top of Stellenbosch Kloof Road, Jordan Wine Estate combines iconic Cape terroir with a winemaking philosophy that marries bright fruit expression with meticulous vineyard management. The Chameleon range takes its name from the Cape Dwarf Chameleons that inhabit the estate gardens, symbolising adaptability and the vibrant personality of these approachable wines. Fruit for the Jordan Chameleon Cabernet Merlot 2024 comes from decomposed granite and loam soils on well-exposed sites in Stellenbosch, where cool maritime influence from False Bay brings lifted freshness to ripe Cabernet and Merlot grapes. Crafted to be easy drinking yet expressive, this wine reflects the estateâs commitment to everyday quality without unnecessary complexity.
Â
Colour: Bright ruby-garnet in the glass, youthful and transparent.
Â
Nose: Enticing aromas of sun-ripened plum and dark spring berries set the tone, lifted by a subtle herbal note of dried mint and a hint of cedar.
Â
Palate: Medium-bodied with plush textured Merlot filling the mid-palate and Cabernet Sauvignon providing structure. Flavours mirror the nose - juicy plum and berry fruit with gentle tannins and refreshing acidity.
Â
Finish: Clean and approachable, with lingering dark fruit and herbal nuances that make it easy to enjoy with a range of foods.

Jordan Chameleon Cabernet Merlot 2024
- Food Pairing : The Jordan Chameleon Cabernet Merlot 2024 pairs beautifully with everyday hearty fare thanks to its ripe fruit core and balanced structure. Think slow-roasted pork shoulder with rosemary and garlic, where the wineâs acidity cuts through rich flavours, or herb-crusted lamb chops with grilled aubergine, letting the berry notes sing alongside savoury depth. A goatâs cheese and olive tart also works well - the fresh acidity and red fruit characters contrast the creamy, salty profile of the cheese in a satisfying way.
- Drink before: Enjoy now through around 2028. Approachable young with a touch of structure for medium-term drinking.
