Information about "Vergelegen Merlot Reserve 2021"

The Vergelegen Merlot Reserve flows into the glass in a wonderful plum shade with a ruby red rim. Its bouquet ranges from dark, ripe cherries and plums to piquant spice notes and a hint of chocolate. Delicate wood notes and fresh fruity acidity are in perfect harmony with the juicy ripe fruit aromas and linger for a long time. An absolute masterpiece of a Merlot!
