Intense, vivid translucent youthful purple-ruby appearance. On the palate there are very pure Pinot fruit flavours on entry with red cherry and musk flavours coupled with fresh acidity. The wine has layered complexity with great elegance and finesse. Very fine lacy, almost powdery tannin on the finish.

Ideally served at 16°-18°C. White and red meats, Parma ham, grilled line fish, Tuna, wild mushrooms and traditional cheeses.

This wine, classic in style, was grown and produced on the historic Meerlust Estate which has been owned by the Myburgh family for eight generations.  It will complement fine food and benefit from further ageing.

A combination of local and international experience spanning more than a decade in the growing and selection of fine wines enables Nico to identify the finest vineyards in the Western Cape for Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz. Vinified in a ver personal and traditional way and matured to perfection in the French oak barrels for 14 months.
