Uiterwyk Merlot 1998

Ripe plum and cherry flavours with a peppery undertone. A rich and weighty Merlot which will benefit from time in the bottle. Uiterwyk Wine Estate was one of the first producers of Merlot in South Africa. The 1984 was the first vintage and was considered such good quality that it was chosen to be served to first class passengers of South African Airways in 1986.
