Meerlust
Meerlust is a historic Stellenbosch wine estate with eight generations of family winemaking dating back to 1756. Best known for its flagship Rubicon Bordeaux-style blend, the estate also produces Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, with vineyards shaped by the cooling influence of nearby False Bay.
Description
The wine hows a vibrant garnet colour with a youthful appearance. On the nose the wine shows pronounced lifted floral perfume with a broody and seductive red berry fruit, earthy wild mushrooms and a hint of spice. On the palate there are very pure Pinot Noir fruit flavours on entry with red cherry and musk flavours. The wine has a layered complexity with elegance and finesse. Fine lacy almost powdery tannins on the finish.
Food Pairing
Enjoy with white meats, duck, Parma ham, grilled line fish, tuna, wild mushrooms and Asian style dishes.
