Description
On the nose, the Meerlust Estate Red 2017 Magnum unfolds with an enticing bouquet. Look for aromas of ripe plum, blackcurrant, and mulberry, interwoven with hints of cedarwood, spice, and a touch of earthiness. These evocative notes carry through to the palate, where a cascade of dark fruit flavours takes centre stage. Juicy blackberry, cassis, and damson mingle with a touch of cherry, all supported by a backbone of firm yet well-integrated tannins. Hints of cocoa, leather, and tobacco add further complexity, creating a truly layered and captivating drinking experience
Food pairing: The wine has a persistent and long-lasting aftertaste and pairs well with venison, game, pot roast and noble cheeses.
Ageing potential: 10-12 years from vintage date under ideal cellar conditions
