Tasting Notes:
See individual wine listings. Meerlust Cabernet Sauvignon 2013 and 2014 Full bodied and impressively structured with rich blackcurrant and plum fruit, refined tannins and fresh natural acidity. Meerlust Rubicon 2016 Exotic aromas of plum, sandalwood and perfume, still with a touch of creamy vanilla. The palate is medium bodied with dark fruit flavour of cassis and mulberry, lithe tannic structure fleshed out with juicy fruit.
