Meerendal Wine Estate
The Vineyards of Meerendal covers an area of 50ha and consist of the noble varieties of Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir, Pinotage, Merlot, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, including our Heritage Block of Pinotage, planted in 1955. Our Wine Cellar dates back to 1943 when 20 original concrete fermenters were built. It has been modernised over the years and now includes stainless steel tanks, French Oak barrels and a state-of-the-art lab for onsite analyses.
Description
Very deep, almost opaque purple colour. Spicy red and black fruit aromas supported by strong bramble type characters on initial nose. Prune, plum and ripe dark cherry follow with a backing of rich fruit cake, spice and sweet vanilla. Big, full well-rounded mouth feel with satin smooth texture that flows across the palate a distinct yet supple tannin. Beautifully integrated oak and layers of flavour.
Food Pairing
The perfect wine for game fish, all red meats and rich cheeses
