Tasting Note

The 2017 is a rich and ripe Merlot delivering aromas of sun ripened plum, mocha and dark chocolate enveloped in delicate hints of oak spice, tobacco and cinnamon. The palate of ripe black fruits and subtle oak is framed by firm tannins through to a lingering finish.

It pairs perfectly with red meats, game, and cheeses, making it a great addition to any culinary experience.

The history of the oldest wine brand of South Africa dates back to as early as 1685, when the Groot Constantia grounds were first given to the Governor of the Cape of Good Hope. In the years after that, the ownership of these vineyards kept changing.
