About this Item

Meerlust
Merlot, 1997
6 (1 x 6) 750ml

Meerlust Estate, owned by the Myburgh family, has been in the family for eight generations. Located 5km from False Bay, the property was given the name 'Meerlust' from the original owner, which means 'pleasure of the sea'. The Meerlust name is synonymous with tradition, elegance and longevity. In fact, it was their Cabernet Sauvignon, produced since 1975, that was the first to carry the Meerlust label.

Critics Ratings

Youthful, bright ruby colour with garnet rim. Pomegranate, peppermint and roasted herbs, with just a slight hint of forest floor. The palate is grippy, with mouth-watering fine tannins, firm acidity and a long line of red and black fruit on the appetising finish. Delicious. - Higgo Jacobs (Feb 2021), 93/100
