About this Item
2009 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
'2009 first bottling since 2005, made only in excellent cab yrs, shows astonishing depth & concentration. Plenty of new (80%) & seasoned oak to seamlessly structure dense layers of succulent fruit flavours, resulting in impressive harmony & wholeness.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2012, 4.5*
