Rustenberg |Stellenbosch Merlot | 1 x 750ml
Merlot has been a mainstay red grape variety on Rustenberg since the late 1970's where its lead role has been to complement Cabernet Sauvignon in blends.
Rustenberg's Merlots tend to be bigger and bolder in body and are structured to have excellent aging potential, pairing well with red meat-based dishes and rewarding decanting before being served.
Rich aromas of blackberries, cassis, and dark chocolate follow through to a smooth palate that is both balanced and well-rounded with fine grained tannins
Aging Potential
8 - 10+ years from vintage under ideal cellaring conditions.
