Asara Merlot 2000 (Magnum)

The Merlot vineyards are planted at 130m above sea-level in cool nutrient-rich Tukulu soil. Located on a crest, the vineyards receive constant exposure to the sun, contributing to ripeness and richness of flavour in the grapes. To increase sunlight exposure while still giving adequate shade, the leaves are picked out twice during the berry set. 

A modest wine farm bought in 2001 and a bold vision of developing its potential and sharing it with people who appreciate quality and good food & wine. We value craftsmanship and care. We define luxury as having space and time. The original winefarm dates back to 1691. While we respect the history of the place we also embrace the future in developing it further. To mark the transition in 2001 we changed the name to ASARA.
