Description

The nose shows rhubarb and dark chocolate whiffs. The palate is flush with flavours of plums and dark chocolate, with silky soft tannins that finish in a refined elegance.

Food Pairing: Hartenberg Merlot pairs well with a range of foods. Panko crumbed pork with mustard cream sauce, roasted tomato pasta or a juicy hamburger with cheddar cheese topping.
