What makes the Durbanville Hills “Lighthouse” Merlot uniquely appealing is its blend of sea-influenced terroir and artistic inspiration, channelled through the cool Durbanville climate and the iconic Cape Town lighthouse label. This wine is not only visually collectable, but also carefully crafted to express mint-chocolate and red cherry notes, paired with a poised structure. It represents a refined, coastal Merlot that offers both early charm and the capacity to age gracefully.
Nose: Luxurious aromas of deep red cherry and raspberry mingle with mint-chocolate, vanilla, nutmeg and a touch of aromatic tobacco.
Palate: Medium to full-bodied, the palate is layered with sweet red fruit flavours (ripe cherries and plums), soft vanilla, and a trace of herbal freshness.
Finish: The finish is velvety and lingering, with persistent red fruit notes and a gentle spice echo that underscores the wine’s elegance.

Durbanville Hills Collectors Reserve The Lighthouse Merlot is part of the winery’s premium “Collectors Reserve” range, inspired by the iconic Cape Town lighthouse ‒ “Moaning Minnie” — perched on Green Point. The grapes come from cool-climate Durbanville vineyards where sea mists and gentle maritime breezes shape the variety. This Merlot is matured for about 14 months (per Makro listing) to develop both concentration and finesse.
