In character, our Merlot offers flavors of chocolate, plums, licorice, black cherries, blueberries, black raspberries and blackberries as well as jam, which depends on the levels of ripeness the fruit was allowed to achieve. It is round, fleshy and can be opulent in texture. It is a delicious wine, with aromas of cassis, truffle, violet, plum, and chocolate.
Our aim for our Merlot is to maintain the freshness of the fruit, before it becomes too soft and loses its freshness. While Cabernet Sauvignon produces stunning and structured, classic Bordeaux wines, our Merlot is capable of making the world’s most hedonistic, opulent and decadent tasting experience. Pair with hearty meals or drink as a stand-alone wine on a cold winter evening. Serve with red meats such as prime rib and steak seasoned heavily with garlic.
