Deze honderd procent Merlot wijn wordt geproduceerd in de wijnregio Constantia. Hier genieten de druiven van de warme zon en de koelte vanuit de Atlantische Oceaan. Steenberg geeft ze de tijd, waardoor de Merlot druiven perfect kunnen rijpen. Hierdoor ontstaan er druiven met een mooi geconcentreerd fruitkarakter. Ze geven een mooie paarse kleur aan de wijn en ze hebben stuk voor stuk een onderscheidend karakter. Maar bij deze prachtige Merlot wijn zeggen woorden niet genoeg. Een wijn die je echt zelf moet ervaren. Ontkurk deze Steenberg Merlot en geniet van haar elegant en zacht karakter.Het oude landgoed van Steenberg
Steenberg is een van de oudste landgoederen in de regio Constantia. De oorspronkelijke oorsprong gaat terug tot 1682, toen nog onder de naam Swaaneweide. Het oersterke karakter Catharina Ras stichtte het landgoed en was een van de eerste Zuid-Afrikaanse vrouwen die land bezat. Later besloot Peter van der Stel er zijn landhuis te bouwen. Het heeft sinds 1969 de status van rijksmonument. Maar pas met het einde van de apartheid kreeg het landgoed zijn huidige faam. In 1990 werden tijdens een volledige renovatie zowel de wijngaarden als het eerbiedwaardige herenhuis inclusief het wooncomplex grondig gerestaureerd. De druiven worden zorgvuldig en selectief geoogst om het fruit te laten concentreren en een goede kleur en een onderscheidend karakter te geven aan deze Merlot. Het sap wordt vijf dagen koud geweekt op 10 graden en vervolgens 14 dagen op de schil gefermenteerd, waarbij de temperatuur in de tank stijgt tot 28 graden. De wijn wordt vervolgens overgebracht op een combinatie van nieuwe en gebruikte Franse eikenhouten vaten voor malolactische gisting en 18 maanden rijping.De fluweelzachte textuur van Steenberg Merlot
Het resultaat is een dieppaarse Merlot met een elegant en zacht rood fruit karakter. Hij is veelzijdig en heeft in de neus aroma’s van wierook, viooltjes, vanille, kruidnagel en zachte groene munt. In de smaak zwarte en rode bessen. De fluweelzachte textuur wordt versterkt door verfrissende zuren, terwijl goed geïntegreerde tannines structuur toevoegen. Deze vollere wijn is bestand tegen rijke gerechten met sterke mediterrane smaken, zoals gestoofd en gebraden vlees.Shipping Notes

Horrific Voter Suppression
Format: Paperback
This is a very well documented book about voter suppression in America. It was interesting to see that before the Jim Crow era, black people voted, were elected to office, got educations and did fairly well. With Jim Crow, horrific voter suppression began (lynchings, etc.). In the early days it was the Southern Democrats and the KKK. As time went on the methods simply became more devious. In the 1930s FDR began attempting to attract black voters to the party. By the end of WWII we had "Dixiecrats". By the time the time the Civil Rights Act was passed, the transition was complete and those Southern Democrats were now members of the GOP. (Much of that bit of history is not in the book, but you'll want to look it up.) The GOP is now the master of voter suppression, and you can see it pretty much everywhere but especially in Georgia, Texas, Minnesota and many southern states. The book is chock full or examples, case histories and stories of resistance. It made me want to sell my house and give the money to the ACLU, NAACP, and SPLC to defend our most precious right (not privilege) to vote.

This is a MUST read!!
Format: Kindle
This book is a must read! I was just not aware of the extent of the planned, organized, deliberate and insidious actions that the Republican Party has taken to suppress votes from the disenfranchised and the impact that has on our Democracy. I am stricken by the horror of what has been happening now for YEARS and is still going on today!! Carol Anderson has compiled hard data to demonstrate the pervasiveness of the many voter suppression steps that have been taken across many states, primarily in the deep south, but not exclusive to the south. It’s very difficult to take reams of data and put it into a coherent, logical sequence that can be easily understood but she is masterful at making her book eminently readable. This is a very data driven book but I had no trouble getting through it. The conclusion did have some hopeful information relaying steps that some states are taking to increase voter participation which did give me some hope. I am so glad that I read this and I think we all should be informed on this issue as it is central to our state as a country.

Great book but disappointing kindle experience
Format: Kindle
A must-read for anyone who wants to understand the troubled and racist history of voting rights in the US.
My only complaint is that the Kindle version of this book messes up the footnotes. The great thing about reading on the Kindle is that you don't have to flip back and forth to check the footnote cites; you only have to click on them. Sadly, the footnotes aren't correct in the Kindle version of the book. They somehow were shifted by one, as I was able to confirm in my hardcover copy, completely ruining the experience if you wish to read more about a specific incident. This is inexcusable in my mind, but I won't hurt the rating for this book by taking off a star.

Activist history
Format: Hardcover
Anderson quite thoroughly explodes the myth of the rampant voter fraud claims that fuel the actual problem of rampant voter disenfranchisement, particularly aimed at non-whites. And, by extension, Anderson explodes the myth of the United States being a free and open democracy and shows us how much we still have to do to live up to the national image some of us like to think we put out to the world. From the illegal purging of voter registrations, to gerrymandering, to voter intimidation, Anderson offers up the facts of the racist policies that look to keep elections in the hands of white patriarchy and suppress its opponents. While Anderson sometimes resorts to some typical metaphors in her rhetoric (false comparisons to Stalin, for example, or Orwell name drops) that could too easily be cherry-picked by dull-minded opponents looking to poke holes in an otherwise fine case of what should be enraging us into action.
