Meerlust Estates Stellenbosch Red is a judicious blend of two Cabernets (Sauvignon and Franc) and Merlot. Bright with an intense violet colour, this medium-bodied red is expressive on the nose and vivacious on the palate. The fruit not used for their top wine, the Rubicon, is used for the Stellenbosch Red, hence the quality is outstanding. Tasting Notes Soft, silky tannins with fresh acidity. Notes of crushed black fruit, cassis, vanilla and dark chocolate on the palate Region Stellenbosch, South Africa Food Pairing
