Meerlust Rubicon 2016Type:Red Country:South Africa Region:Coastal Appellation:Stellenbosch  Style Medium to Full Bodied RedsVintage 2016Grape Cabernet blendAlcohol 14%Size 75clDrink Drink / Lay DownOak Style OakedGrower MeerlustClassification The 2016 Rubicon shows great charm and drinkability even at this early stage, no doubt a result of the high Merlot and Cabernet Franc composition. We were very cautious with regards to tannic structure as some of the later Cabs exhibited astringency which we wanted to minimise in the final blend. Wonderful exotic aromas of plum, sandalwood and perfume, still with a touch of creamy vanilla. The palate is medium bodied with a forward dark fruit flavour of cassis and mulberry followed by a lithe tannic structure fleshed out with juicy fruit. The impression is one of litheness and grace rather than over-arching power. Other Stellenbosch wines £35.99 £24.99 £23.99 |
