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 Rubicon 2021 displays a deep, dense color with an almost purple hue. The nose is quintessentially Rubicon, featuring aromas of violets, ripe plum, cedar wood, fennel, and intense spices, alongside hints of liquorice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured, characterized by fresh dark fruit flavors, rounded tannins, and seamlessly integrated oak.
Food Pairing
This wine pairs well with rich meats such as beef, lamb, and venison. Its robust structure and layered flavors also make it a suitable companion for dishes with earthy, spicy, or smoky components.
