Oh! Merlot

Oh! Merlot is a cool-climate Merlot from Elgin, South Africa, a region known for producing elegant, finely structured wines. The cooler temperatures allow for a longer ripening period, resulting in balanced acidity, refined tannins, and expressive fruit character. Fermented in stainless steel with minimal oak to retain freshness and purity.

Aromas of redcurrant, plum, and hints of thyme. The palate is medium-bodied and silky, with fresh red fruit, gentle tannins, and a clean, lifted finish.

Contains sulphites.

• Grilled lamb chops with herbs
• Mushroom risotto
• Soft cheeses like Brie
• Roasted red pepper and feta tart
• Lentil and beetroot salad

From the cool Elgin valley, this Merlot proves the grape’s potential outside its traditional strongholds. The label’s light-hearted name belies the wine’s quality—this is a serious, site-driven Merlot with a fresh, modern attitude.
