Fleur du Cap Merlot
Product Code: 89453
A cool south-westerly wind tempers the effect of the summer sun and ensures an extended ripening season. This gradual ripening of grapes allows for optimum development of the sought-after flavour components.
Tasting Notes : Ripe black cherries, raspberries and mocha with hints of vanilla and cumin spices on the nose. Attractive berry and delicate oak flavours fill the mouth and are beautifully rounded.
Producer : Fleur du Cap
Method of Production : Grapes were sourced from selected vineyards in the Stellenbosch and Durbansville areas that were planted from 1987 to 1997 and range in altitude from 210 to 430 metres. The must fermented at cool temperatures in the cellars, and then underwent a malolactic conversion. It was matured in 60% new and 40% second-fill oak casks for 18 months.
