About this Item
Merlot, 1998
12 (1 x 12) 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.

‘Particularly rich with violet notes, meaty mocha on the taut finish. 10 years maturation will allow distinctive truffle/game character to develop. French oak for 2 years, with 10% Cabernet Sauvignon.’ - Platter’s SA Wine Guide 2001, 4*
