Vondeling Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2005
by Matthew Copeland

  • A cracking example of a new world take on Bordeaux, bags more fruit and wine for your money!
  • A classic blend with an abundant array of fruit flavours which will keep you going back for the next glass
  • Try it South African style with a well-matured, thickly sliced slab of sirloin, served rare off a hot bed of coals

"I was born in Paarl, smack bang in the centre of the South African Winelands and as such I was literally surrounded by wine as a kid. After finishing school I had fun working with wine bottling and marketing, but I was always drawn to the art of winemaking and knew it was the career for me"

Somewhat subtle, but by no means lacking. Drank with gammon and damson cheese (rather than sirloin as suggested) which complimented the wine very well.

No fireworks, but a great wine.

Second time trying this one and really enjoyed it...so did the company. Nice balance of fruit and spice. And, no overpowering tannins. Great wine!

The cab sauv added a slight bitterness to the merlot, I prefer merlot unblended.

Not a great wine just a good one,a bit pricey for what you get which to be honest is still well above average.Would buy it again if it was priced £7-£9 but at over £11+ i expected more from this wine but still reasonably happy with purchase
