Rustenberg
The Rustenberg Estate was founded in 1682 and is nestled in the valley of the Simonsberg Mountain in South Africa’s premium wine region Stellenbosch. Rustenberg’s rich heritage and ethos has been informed by many centuries of human influence striving to understand and work with nature to produce wines of distinct character true to their terroir variety and informed style.
Description
This Merlot typically showcases rich aromas of blackberries, cassis, eucalyptus, and dark chocolate. On the palate, it is smooth, balanced, and well-rounded, with fine-grained tannins contributing to its structure.
Food Pairing
The wine pairs excellently with hearty dishes such as grilled lamb, beef stews, or mushroom risotto. Its robust character complements rich, savory flavors.
