The Voor Paardeberg might not be the first place you'd go looking for a stylish Merlot in the Cape, but this is a delicious and very well-priced example of the variety. Smooth and granular, with herbal red berry flavours, fine cedarwood top notes and good palate length.

Rolf Madsen/VineXpressen skriver (red. uge 42/2021): I Vondeling har vi først lidt solbær efterfulgt af et stormløb af brombær, røg og cedertræ. Saftig og ganske ekstraktrig i munden med en fin lille frugtsødme, der flankeres af en god struktur og rankhed. Afsluttes af et lille frisk tanninbid. 88-89. Anbefalet

Rolf Madsen/VineXpressen skriver (red. uge 42/2021): Strejf af oliven, lidt brombær, karamel, toffifee og røg. Tæt i munden med god ekstraktion, masser af blød frugtsødme og et lille syrebid i finalen. Flot sydafrikaner! 91. Høj genkøbsfaktor.
