Tim Atkin SA Report
'Much fresher and more focused than it used to be, Meerlust's Chardonnay uses five different clones planted on shale and granite soils. Fermented in oak and concrete, with 10% malolactic, it's focused, pithy and crunchy, with lime and lemon butter flavours and a textured mid palate. 2024-29' – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2024, 93/100

‘Very bright pale-yellow colour with green, vivacious hue. Complex, appealing nose of apricot, peach, pear, lemon zest and floral notes with hints of toasted almonds. On the palate the wine is well structured and linear but retains generous focused stone fruit flavours with sleek, balanced, and crisp acidity. The wine remains vivacious and fresh on the finish with clean citrus fruit underpinned by minerality. The wine has a long, very pleasant lingering finish.’ – Winemaker

Producer information 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.
