About this wine

This inviting Merlot from Stellenbosch captures the elegance and warmth that Zevenwacht Estate has become known for. Silky, rounded and beautifully balanced, it opens with ripe black berry fruit, a touch of plum and a gentle glow of spice. The palate flows softly with supple tannins, making it as enjoyable on its own as it is with hearty dishes.

Zevenwacht's cool coastal influence and thoughtful winemaking create a red that feels polished yet effortlessly drinkable. Whether you're discovering the estate for the first time or returning to an old favourite, this is a reliable bottle that brings a little taste of the Cape to any evening.
