2008 KWV Merlot

A very well made everyday drinking Merlot that delivers plenty of varietal character and flavour.
Dark crimson red mauve colour with crimson mauve hue. Aromas of mulberry, plum and cedar delivering good intensity. The palate delivers impressive weight and concentration for a quaffing Merlot with flavours of ripe dark plum and mulberry followed by some spicy cedar and tobacco characters. Soft fine grained tannins with aftertaste of mulberry, plum and cedar.
