Meerlust Rubicon is the flagship red blend from one of South Africa’s most renowned wineries, situated in Stellenbosch. The estate crafts this exceptional wine with precision, highlighting the best of its terroir. The blend consists primarily of Cabernet Sauvignon, with Merlot and Cabernet Franc adding depth and complexity to the final product.
The colour of the Rubicon is a deep, enticing ruby red, indicative of its rich character. On the nose, it opens with a powerful and complex bouquet of aromas. Dark fruits like blackcurrant and plum dominate the profile, followed by delicate hints of tobacco, leather, and subtle spice. These layers of scent create an inviting complexity that evolves with each swirl of the glass.
The palate is equally impressive, offering a full-bodied experience with silky, well-structured tannins. Flavours of ripe black fruit are complemented by hints of dark chocolate and a touch of earthy minerality, providing a balanced and harmonious profile. The oak influence, carefully integrated, imparts nuances of cedar, vanilla, and a faint smokiness, which enhance the wine’s depth and structure.
Meerlust Rubicon is an ideal candidate for cellaring, as its powerful structure and rich complexity allow it to age gracefully. With time, the wine will continue to evolve, revealing even greater complexity and refinement. Its ageing potential makes it perfect for those who enjoy wines that improve with age, offering a rewarding experience for collectors and connoisseurs alike.
Pair this exquisite wine with rich, savoury dishes such as roast lamb, venison, or a well-marbled steak. Meerlust Rubicon is the perfect reflection of the estate’s commitment to producing world-class wines, blending tradition with innovative winemaking practices.
