About the wine
A succulent, stylish, and ultra rare South African white merlot
- Using exceptional fruit from South Africa’s Houwhoek Mountains that only a very select few can get hold of, Kobie has made you a super rare white merlot.
- It shows classical bright and moreish merlot flavours with a perfectly balanced finish that sings with elegance from the first sip to the last.
- The moment the wine hits your glass, you’ll notice mouth watering aromas of apple blossom, vanilla, and citrus, which then followed by succulent but pleasingly mellow flavours of pear, mandarin, fresh pastry and almonds.
Best before
This wine can easily handle maturation. Colour will slowly evolve into more copper and then later on to gold. But the longevity of the palate will carry it for 8 - 12 years from vintage without any disappointment.
Serving advice
Best served at 10°C.
Food match
Great with any kind of hearty stew. My favourite
is a stew we make here in the Cape called
"Waterblommetjie bredie" - translated to "Water
flower stew".

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Kobie and Faisal
- Kobie is a top winemaker from one of South Africa’s most medalled wineries
- Faisal was a vineyard owner who realised the grapes he sold to boutique wineries were going into their top award winning wines...
- So he decided to employ Kobie and make their own wines. After all everyone says 'all great wine is made in the vineyard!' After 10 years and numerous medals all their hard work has paid off, and they get the awards and not their neighbours!
