Rust En Vrede
Established in 1694 Rust en Vrede is proud to be part of a remarkable three hundred year old wine tradition. Since 1977 the Engelbrecht family has specialized in the exclusive production of red wine with the focus on Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Proprietor Jean Engelbrecht has worked to establish Rust en Vrede as one of South Africa’s premium red wine estates with full-bodied and complex wines that reflect the uniqueness of the Helderberg terroir.
Description
Intense blackcurrant with lead pencil blanketed in a soft perfume of violets. On the palate, well defined fruit flavours of cassis, red currant, and bramble dominate underscored with sandalwood and liquorice. Spicy notes of freshly ground black pepper with cinnamon and clove bring depth. Structured with robust tannins and a textured finish of blackcurrant with nutmeg. Opulence meets restraint.
Food Pairing
Charcoal cooked Kalahari springbok loin.
