South Africa Tradition meets innovation

Characteristic Meerlust hallmark aromas of fennel and liquorice whilst on the palate rich fruit and supple tannic structure typical of the 2016 vintage.

A complex, appealing nose with pear, citrus and floral notes developing into lemon cream, oatmeal and marzipan richness. On the palate the wine is medium bodied and linear but retains generous focused citrus fruit flavours with sleek, balanced and crisp acidity.

The Meerlust Merlot 2016 is a blend of 85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc for structure and acidity and 5% Petit Verdot which gives the wine a lifted floral aroma and polished, sleek tannins.

2017 was a perfect vintage for Pinot Noir on the Meerlust estate.  The wine shows pronounced lifted perfume on the nose with red berry fruit, musk, wild mushrooms and hints of savoury richness and spice and a clean vibrant minerality
