Simonsvlei Lifestyle Merlot 2005

WINE Magazine 2005 - Best Value Award
Paarl Young Wine Show 2005 - Bronze
Intense colour, the nose full of ripe fruit with chocolate and figgy overtones. Fascinating. Concentrated fruit then fills the mouth with balanced sweetness.

Perfect foil for white meats and even white fish.
