About this Item

Merlot, 2013
3 (1 x 3) 750ml

Meerlust Estate has been the pride of the Myburgh family since 1756. Having previously visited Bordeaux, Nico Myburgh realised that the terroir there was very similar to that of his farm near the Eerste River. In 1978, Giorgio joined Nico at Meerlust in which was to be a dynamic, fruitful decades-long friendship and partnership between owner-vintner and cellarmaster.

Critics Ratings

‘Tall, dark and handsome in refined house style, 2013 redolent of violets, roasted game bird and piquant spice. 9% aromatic Cabernet Franc, a splash of Petit Verdot and deft 60% new oak focus the mineral core.’ - Platter’s SA Wine Guide 2016, 4.5*
