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 Rubicon 2022 offers a youthful deep ruby red colour. A complex perfume of violet, ripe black plum, blackberry, cassis with cedar wood, bouquet garni and potpourri spice. This young and intense Rubicon is still tightly wound, and offers a palate packed with fresh dark fruit, rounded tannins and seamlessly integrated oak lifted by a good acidity.
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.
