Meerlust Red 2019

An intense dark purple blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot from one of South Africas most well known producers. Meerlust are the pioneers of the Bordeaux blend in South Africa with their Rubicon and this more approachable red is a great example of the value that can be found from this quality region. Ripe blackcurrant, plums and spice are present on its expressive nose whilst crushed blackfruit, cassis, chocolate and vanilla show on the palate. Soft tannins and long persistant finish, great with game dishes and casseroles.
