About this Item

Cabernet Sauvignon, 1982
1 (1 x 1) 5000ml

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.

The 1982 vintage was one of the standouts of the era, producing wines of remarkable endurance, especially in the larger formats. This 5l bottle is in pristine condition, having been stored at the Bergkelder Vinoteque in its early life and at Wine Cellar thereafter.
