The Meerlust Pinot Noir flows into the glass in a youthfully glowing crimson-ruby red, caressing the palate with seductive notes of red berry fruit and musk, wild mushrooms and a hint of spicy spice, as well as a clear lively minerality. On the palate you find very pure Pinot fruit with red cherry and musk aromas paired with fresh acidity. This wine is complex with a wonderful elegance, finesse and extremely fine tannins in the finish. The noble and demanding grape variety Pinot Noir produces delicate wines when carefully cultivated in the vineyard and matured in the cellar on the terroir of South Africa.

About 20% of the grapes were fermented in small stainless steel tanks, regularly stirred and used for gentle extraction. Malolactic fermentation took place in Allier oak. The wine then matured for 11 months in Allier oak barrels, 50% of which were new.
