Merlot 2020-Case
R450.00 R382.50
Merlot is a dark blue-coloured grape variety that is used as both a blending and single varietal wine. In 1824, the word Merlot itself appeared in an article on Médoc wine (Bordeaux) where it was described that the grape was named after the local black bird (called merlau in the local variant of “Romance language”, merle in standard) who liked eating the ripe grapes on the vine. The Stettyn Merlot tends to emphasize late harvesting to gain physiological ripeness and produce a ruby red colour and intense red fruits.
Known for being soft, ripe and elegant, most Merlots are easy-drinking reds that go well both with food as well as on their own. This is an approachable grape varietal and is often recommended as the first red wine someone new to red wine should drink.
Merlot is like the little Red Riding Hood, red, cute with a basket full of strawberries, raspberries, and plums. Classic!
