Meerlust Red, Stellenbosch, South Africa

Vintage: 2018
Description: The wine has an intense, dark purple colour with a violet rim; bright and vivacious in the glass, youthful. The nose is expressive with powerful cassis, plum, exotic spice and hints of floral aromas. On the palate the wine is medium-bodied with intense flavours of crushed black fruit, cassis, vanilla and dark chocolate. The tannins are soft and silky, the acidity fresh, the flavour profile focused and linear. The wine has a persistent and long-lasting aftertaste. The 2018 is a blend of 56% Merlot and 44% Cabernet Franc and in 2019 they made no Rubicon so the Red will be amazing although this wine is always an excellent value.
