Title: Steenberg Merlot, Constantia | Red Wine | 75cl | United Kingdom Brand: Winebuyers Established in 1682, Steenberg was the Cape's first wine farm, located just outside Cape Town. The farm changed hands several times until 1990 when it was purchased by J.C.I and redeveloped into a renowned vineyard and hotel. Graham Beck acquired Steenberg Hotel and Steenberg Winery in 2005. Steenberg Hotel has since become a luxury destination, boasting an award-winning winery nestled amidst its stunning natural landscape. This full-bodied Merlot exudes elegance with its soft red fruit and characteristic notes of vanilla, cedar, and clove. The nose offers red cherry and redcurrant, while the palate reveals sour cherry, coffee, and spicy clove. The velvety texture is complemented by refreshing acidity, while well-integrated tannins add structure. This wine pairs beautifully with rich dishes featuring strong Mediterranean flavors.
