About this Item
Provenance
Wine Cellar Private ClientCritics Ratings
‘Usual distinctive, classic styling in 2009, tightly structured but with lovely succulent dark plum & mineral core, embellished with dark chocolate & spice. Splash cab franc lifts, but best wait 2-3 years.’ - Platter’s SA Wine Guide 2013, 4.5*
''The whipping boy of South African wine' is how winemaker Chris Williams describes Merlot, but there's nothing wrong with this example. It's plush, plump and leafy with 10% Cabernet Franc contributing some extra perfume to the blackcurrant fruit. The oak is deftly handled, as ever at Meerlust. Drink: 2013-20.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2013, 93/100
