Remhoogte Aspect Merlot 2020

Winemakers Notes: Situated high up on the steep shale slopes of Remhoogte, our merlot vineyard is positioned on a cool southerly facing slope, the ideal Aspect for merlot in Stellenbosch. Classic in style, showing juicy berried fruit on entry, with chocolate tannins, and a fresh acidity bringing balance and length.

The nose is is dark and brooding with ripe currents, cherries and plums backed by white pepper and cedar. The palate is full and juicy with polished tannins and a lively acidity bringing freshness and length. Pairs well with rich beef and lamb dishes, tomato-based stews and curries. Pair with biltong and aged cheeses.
