More Information - Alvis Drift Signature Merlot

Crafted by winemaker Alvi van der Merwe in the cool-climate Breede River Valley, the Alvi’s Drift Signature Range Merlot is a brilliant, approachable red wine designed for effortless enjoyment. Hand-harvested in the early morning, the grapes undergo careful fermentation and up to eight months of maturation in French oak to build a rich, complex character without losing its signature smoothness.
