Boplaas Merlot 2009

Fruit-driven style Merlot. A bouquet of ripe red fruits and an elegant plum/cherry palate with firm tannins for aging potential.

A beef ravioli with a roucquette and feta salad with a balsamic and olive-oil vinaigrette. A perfect partner for pasta dishes, red meat and hearty poultry dishes. A wine for one to sit down with - fill your glass - and pass the bottle on to a good friend.
