Meerlust Rubicon

A Very deep, youthful colour, and intense almost purple hue, classic Rubicon nose with violets, ripe plum, cedar wood and intense spiciness

A typical liquorice note and stony minerality also evident on the nose. Still youthful and intense, promising further maturation potential

The palate is full bodied, structured by beautifully sleek, ripe tannins which restrain the vibrant dark fruit typical of this vintage, giving the wine an opulent texture which is kept focused by the linear acidity. The wine lingers on the palate with creamy fruit mouth-filling tannins - ageing potential of 15 – 20 years, provided wine is stored in ideal cellar condition
