More information about Meerlust Merlot 2017
The Meerlust Merlot flows into the glass in a beautiful red color and makes the hearts of red wine lovers beat faster from the very first moment with its intense fruity aroma. Blackberry and plum aromas in particular beguile the nose of the connoisseur and are accompanied by licorice, spices and a hint of dark chocolate. Silky soft tannins and a beautiful texture caress the palate, while fruity and mineral nuances ensure a long-lasting taste experience. The Meerlust Merlot was refined with a little Cabernet Franc (8%) and Petit Verdot (4.5%) to add even more complexity to the red wine, which matured for seventeen months in French oak. Enjoy the Meerlust Merlot either on its own or with game or dark meat dishes. This red wine is also a delight with strong cheese.
