Meerlust Pinot Noir 2019

The wine shows a vibrant garnet colour with a youthful appearance. On the nose the wine shows pronounced lifted floral perfume with a brooding and seductive red berry fruit, earthy, wild mushrooms and hints of spice.

On the palate there are very pure Pinot fruit flavours on entry with red cherry and musk flavours coupled with fresh acidity. The wine has layered complexity with great elegance and finesse. Very fine lacy, almost powdery tannin on the finish.

Up to 2025 provided wine is stored in ideal cellar conditions.

White and red meats, duck, Parma ham, grilled line fish, tuna, wild mushrooms and traditional cheeses.

Selected from 3 vineyard blocks, situated on loamy gravel topsoil with clay sub-soil. The vineyards are located at the highest point on the Estate (85-120m) with Northwest facing aspect to benefit from the cool, maritime breeze from False Bay. 30% vendage vert (green harvesting cluster removal) at 80% veraison to ensure concentration and even ripening.
