Uva Mira The Mira Merlot 2019

Uva Mira The Mira Merlot 2019

R270,00

The style of this wine was determined in the vineyard, with careful attention being given to green harvesting, canopy management as well as crop management. Soft yet voluptuous with intense, succulent flavours that explode on the palate and awaken your taste buds. Enchanting and lively with lush scents of red and black fruit laced with vanilla pod, some creaminess and subtle herbal notes, arousing the senses. Succulent purity of fruit on the palate with refreshing acidity, balanced by delectable fruit sweetness and a delicately herbal finale.

About the Wine Estate

Uva Mira translates as "The Wonderful Grape". Uva is the Latin word for grape, Mira means wonderful, miraculous and full of charm. The Uva Mira Mountain Vineyards, as high as 620 metres above sea level on the slopes of the Helderberg Mountain Range, nestle against the Helderberg Nature Reserve. With breathtaking views of False Bay and Table Bay, often wrapped in clouds, a cool climate, sea breezes, a granite foundation and strong minerality of the soil, enhanced by acres of fynbos.... nature does her work.
