Dombeya
To honour the original farm, our lifestyle range of wines bears the Dombeya name. The Dombeya tree, native to South Africa, has extraordinarily beautiful flowers which herald in South Africa’s spring season. Dotted around our vineyards these trees embrace the cycle of regeneration and renewal, a fitting symbol of modern-day South Africa. Our Dombeya portfolio consists of 5 wines; a varietal range of Merlot, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, and a Reserve range with Boulder Road Shiraz and the Bordeaux-style Fenix.
Description
This Merlot shows notes of red forest berries, ripe plums with a slight cedar undertone. On the palate the wine opens up to a bowl of red and blackberries followed by some savory notes. The acid is moderate allowing the tannis to show its silky elegance with a long savory finish
