Merlot

Plump and well-rounded, this smooth red is a bundle of vinous energy with prominent notes of plum, chocolate and raspberry soaring from the glass.

An elegant wine with aromatics of black cherries and currants finishing with subtle spice.

Merlot is an excellent food wine due to its soft tannins, medium-high acidity, and enjoyable fruit flavours.. It can be paired with a wide range of dishes, from charcuterie and cheese to pork and veal. The light meat from poultry, chicken, turkey, and duck goes well with the fruity flavours and soft texture of the wine. The salty and savoury flavours of semisoft cheeses like Gruyère, Comté, Emmenthal and Gouda will fit Oudebrug Merlot well. And the earthy flavours of this wine will pair exceptionally well with dishes containing roasted vegetables or mushrooms.

Displaying typical Morgenster traits of this variety; velvety soft tannins with intense fruit concentration. Sumptuously smooth with enough fine tannin to broaden the palate weight and add an extra dimension to this estate-grown merlot.
