Signatures of Doolhof Merlot 2006

A classic Merlot with well integrated oak and berry flavours.
The wine was matured in 50% new French oak barrels for 12 months.  Bright aromas of red fruit and sugared plums are followed by a juicy layer of ripe mulberries on the palate.  Smoky tones and firm tannins add complexity to this elegant wine.  Bottled in September 2007.
 

Serve with roasted leg of lamb or pork fillet.
