Stellenbosch Reserve Merlot 2022 Kweekskool

Bold aromas of black cherries, dark chocolate, and plum combined with cedar and star anise. Juicy, mouth-filling tannins are balanced by a refreshing acidity and a creamy texture that compliments the intense fruit flavours. Red cherry and plum with black currant and liquorice and a note of savoury spice on the lengthy finish.

The Kweekskool is the home of the Theology faculty of Stellenbosch University. It marked the beginning of higher education in Stellenbosch when it was established as the Theology Seminary in 1859. Built in 1687 and remodelled over the years, the evolution and endurance of this distinctive building is what we try to capture in this Merlot.
