Asara Vineyard Collection Merlot 2022
Merlot
Description
Asara Wine Estate lies on the Polkadraai Road in Stellenbosch, a prime winelands corridor known for producing structured, expressive reds. The region’s warm daylight hours, cooling afternoon breezes and varied soils create ideal conditions for Merlot to achieve ripe fruit character while retaining balance. Asara combines classic estate traditions with a polished modern approach, crafting wines that reflect both vineyard site and careful cellar work. The Vineyard Collection focuses on accessible, varietally true wines that offer immediate enjoyment without losing regional identity.
Colour:
Deep ruby red with a youthful garnet edge.
Nose:
Fresh aromas of red berries and plum lead the bouquet, followed by raspberry, sweet cherry and subtle hints of mint, vanilla and soft oak spice.
Palate:
Medium to full-bodied, with juicy red and dark fruit at the core. Silky tannins give a smooth texture, while balanced acidity keeps the wine fresh and composed. Gentle oak influence adds depth without overshadowing the fruit.
Finish:
Supple and lingering, finishing on ripe plum, cherry skin and delicate spice.
