Cape Winemakers Guild

De Trafford Merlot 2009

A single, new oak barrel selected from Merlot from our Mont Fleur vineyard 400 metres above sea level. This wine spent its second year in a second fill barrel. Tasting Notes: Rich, lively, true red colour. Fruitcake, blackberry and plum nose envelops a fine cedary oak and chalky, charcoal component. Firm, dusty tannins carry the rich fruit nicely on the palate.

Winemaker: David Trafford
