Porcupine Ridge Merlot hails from Stellenbosch vineyards, primarily the Helderberg area, with grapes selected from specific parcels of decomposed koffieklip soils for their ability to yield intense dark berry fruit.
This Merlot opens with a classic nose of red plums, cranberry, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg, accented by rosemary, thyme, and oregano. It’s a lithe and elegant wine with a wonderfully smooth midpalate and plush, silky texture, showcasing dark berry fruit, fine-grained tannins, and balanced acidity. Subtle hints of mocha and dark milk chocolate linger on a vibrant finish.
