About this Item

2010 Cabernet Sauvignon
6 (1 x 6) 750ml

Meerlust Estate, owned by the Myburgh family, has been in the family for eight generations. Located 5km from False Bay, the property was given the name 'Meerlust' from the original owner, which means 'pleasure of the sea'. The Meerlust name is synonymous with tradition, elegance and longevity. In fact, it was their Cabernet Sauvignon, produced since 1975, that was the first to carry the Meerlust label.

Critics Ratings

‘Impressive 2010 in more austere style than previous expressive vintage (now being released annually). Resolute, seamlessly integrated tannins conceal dense, nicely ripe blackcurrant fruit, patience will see it emerge to realise its full potential.’ - Platter’s SA Wine Guide 2013, 4.5*
