Fleur Du Cap Merlot is a still red wine from Stellenbosch in South Africa's Western Cape, made from 100% Merlot and bottled at 14% ABV in a 750ml bottle. The grapes are hand-harvested in Stellenbosch and the wine is aged for 12 months in American and French oak barrels in the Bergkelder cellars. The nose offers dark berries, black plum, cherry, leather, dry spice, dark chocolate, vanilla and violets. On the palate it is soft and fruit-forward, with ripe blackcurrant and black cherry leading into plum, herbs and wood spice, with medium tannins and a mouthfilling texture. The finish is clean and moderately long, with blackcurrant, dry spice and a faint licorice undertone.
