ROOIBERG MERLOT RESERVE 2013

CHARACTERISTICS

TASTING NOTES

This flagship wine of our Reserve Selection is a rich intense wine with a beautiful deep ruby colour. Careful maturation in French oak ensures a dimension of discreet dark chocolate and coffee richness of the palate.

 

BLEND INFORMATION

100% Cabernet Sauvignon

 

FOOD SUGGESTIONS 

This is really a wine for red meat, especially beef and lamb, but much less for game. Strong cheeses like mature Cheddar, Roquefort, and Gorgonzola.
