Mooiplaas The Coco Chocolate Merlot

The Coco Chocolate Merlot has clear notes of dark chocolate. This is achieved through heavily roasted French oak wood. It makes the red wine something very special. The Coco Chocolate Merlot has a beautiful color, the nose shows cherry fruit with aromas of mocha/dark chocolate. The wine contains a lot of tannins, but it is soft and very accessible, finely integrated. On the palate, it is mouth-filling and surprisingly complex for such a young wine.

The Coco Chocolate Merlot from Mooiplaas pairs wonderfully with burgers, Italian-style sausages, grilled mushrooms, roast lamb or Chinese-style duck.

Mooiplaas Wine Estate
Mooiplaas Wine Estate and Private Nature Reserve, wie das Unternehmen vollständig heißt, liegt wunderschön zwischen den majestätischen, fruchtbaren Bergen und zwei Ozeanen in der berühmten Weinregion Stellenbosch. Das gesamte Anwesen umfasst 250 Hektar, davon sind etwa 100 Hektar Weinberge und 60 Hektar Naturschutzgebiet. Das Weingut ist seit Jahren im Besitz der Familie Roos. Auch weil das Naturschutzgebiet direkt an den Weinbergen liegt, ist ein umweltfreundlicher und nachhaltiger Weinbau unerlässlich. In den Weinbergen werden keine Pestizide eingesetzt. Eines der wichtigsten Merkmale ist der große Höhenunterschied auf dem Gelände. Dadurch entstehen auf den 100 Hektar Weinbergen vielfältige Mikroklimata.

Holden Manz Vernissage
The Holden Manz Vernissage is a cuvée consisting of Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz and Merlot. The Cabernet Sauvignon grape variety gives the wine a lovely structure and particularly elegant tannins. Shiraz and Merlot provide notes of spices and fruit aromas, which are mainly characterised by nuances of dark cherries and plums. The wine is a light ruby-red, developing into a clear red towards the rim in the glass. The Holden Manz Vernissage has a balanced acidity and shows vivid aromas of cassis, tobacco and spice, giving the wine a very good balance. Its finish is soft and long-lasting. Winemaker Thierry Haberer selected the grapes from various vineyards with different types of soil. The grapes were harvested when fully ripe, thus giving the wine a wonderful complexity. After the careful blending of the single batches and grape varieties and the numerous tastings involved, Thierry finally created this expressive, balanced and very fruity Holden Manz Vernissage. The wine matured for 18 months in 225-litre French oak casks. Enjoy the wine with lamb stews with garlic sauce or grilled polenta.
