Pair it with a Stellenbosch Merlot, regarded as some of the hotter Merlots around the world, climate-wise. Merlot flavour does vary depending upon where it's grown climate-wise, you’ll typically get notes of ripe blue, black and red fruit. These tasting notes are often backed by undertones of coco, vanilla and various earth tones. This dry red is the one to go with your Rump steak.
