Description

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Meerlust Wine Estate, Annandale Road, Stellenbosch 7599 South Africa

This 18th Century Vineyard has been in the Myburgh family since 1756 and is recognized the world over for its award winning wines. Only 5 Km from the ocean with its historical Cape Dutch architecture homestead and outbuildings, we take a step back in time in their tasting room filled with history and stories to taste their famous "Rubicon" Bordeaux blend among other varietals of red wine. Meerlust was the first vineyard in South Africa to produce a Bordeux Blend in South Africa.
Because of its unique position close to the ocean, cool sea breezes and evening mists allow for the production of wines with complexity and full concentrated flavours

Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes

Stop At: Rust en Vrede Tasting Room, Stellenbosch 7599 South Africa, Stellenbosch 7600 South Africa

Tucked away in the folds of the Helderberg mountains and shielded from the powerful South-Easterly winds Rust en Vrede (Rest and Peace) is perfectly situated to produce full bodied reds with powerful structure and excellent aging potential.
We taste their selection of Estate wines under the Oak trees and afterwards take a stroll through their cellar

Duration: 2 hours
