Critics Ratings

'This is a rich, mature wine with initial notes of coffee, prunes and mushrooms. Quite earthy, with time it offers sweet fruit and broad shoulders. Powerful yet finely textured, ending in some honey, toffee and savoury notes. Very long and rewarding. Can be kept longer.' - Roland Peens, 94/100 (March 2026 – Tasted at recorking.)

'The 1982 vintage was one of the standouts of the era, producing wines of remarkable endurance and poise. The Meerlust 1982 is exotic and meaty, with good depth, grip and definition. Layers of spice and dark fruit lead to a lively and fresh finish. It is a composed, classy wine that is quite delicious. Drink over the next decade, maybe two.' - Roland Peens 95/100, (July 2025)
