Wildeberg Kleine Oranjerie Merlot 2025
Kleine Oranjerie 'Flora and Fauna' is the South African Wines range from Wildeberg, working with vines old and new across the Cape to capture the region's marvellous menagerie of terroir. This naturally fermented Red Wine is sourced from Paarl vineyards grown on sandy loam soils, where early picking is crucial to finessing the essential character of this tricky cultivar. Why You'll Love It This is Merlot with real character, vibrant, fresh, and beautifully finessed through natural fermentation. JD Rossouw's careful vineyard management and precise picking preserve the essential notes of blueberry, bramble, and natural leafiness that define this wine. Vegetarian, vegan, and sustainably produced, it offers exceptional quality and value for a naturally fermented South African Merlot. Vineyard and Production. Sourced from Paarl vineyards grown on sandy loam soils in the Western Cape. Early picking is central to winemaker JD Rossouw's approach, preserving the vibrant fruit character and freshness that define this wine. Both cultivar and site are allowed to speak without intervention, with natural fermentation used throughout. Tasting Notes. A deeply varietal nose of dark cherry and chocolate over crushed minerals with a lifted leafy note. The palate is generously laden with dark plum and chocolate, carried through to a long, velveteen finish. Perfect Pairings. An excellent match for baked mushrooms stuffed with sundried tomato couscous, grilled meats, roasted vegetables and aged cheeses. Also well suited to lamb, duck and hearty weeknight stews. Grape Varieties. Merlot
