Herbaceous, meatiness and ripe red berries.
The Ernst Gouws & Co Merlot is fresh and pure, with hints of ground black pepper and a potpourri of sundried fruit. Tannins are clean and bright, with oak maturation providing for a softness and mysterious depth on the palate. This is true expression of this noble gralpe variety, and a wine that will improve with cellar aging. Delicious companion to meat-based pasta dishes, grilled lamb chops and duck breast.
