Meerlust
Eight generations of winemaking since 1756 have made Meerlust one of South Africa’s most revered estates. Cooled by False Bay breezes, the vineyards produce world-class wines, including the iconic annual Rubicon release. Today, Meerlust blends deep heritage with a quietly modern approach to fine wine.
Description
The Meerlust Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 has an intense, vivid purple colour with slight gradation at the rim. On the nose the wine shows pronounced plum and classic cedar wood-cigar box notes with lifted dark fruit aromas. There is the characteristic hallmark aromas of fennel and liquorice associated with Meerlust Cabernet. On the palate the wine is full bodied but with richness of fruit and supple tannic structure typical of 2016.
