Merlot

The concentration of the Zorgvliet Merlot causes this wine to often be mistaken for its heavier brother - Cabernet Sauvignon. The nose reminds of black cherry and sandalwood. The entry in the mouth is slightly grippy with good dark chocolate focus on the mid palate and a somewhat dryish finish. The wine is full bodied and rich and will reward some aging.

Pork, oxtail (stews), beef ribs, calves or lamb livers.
