Our Wines

This wine is a deep, intense red. Elegant on the nose, with aromas of black fruits (blueberry and blackberry) dominating the hint of spice. A remarkable fullness on the palate, with tannic chewiness and unexpected roundness. The long finish has vanilla delicacy. A delightful wine, both powerful and elegant.

Allegrini’s take on the “Ripasso” method is made from a portion of grapes dried just for this wine (and not from the Amarone pomace). It's a smooth, velvety wine with ripe, juicy dark fruit and silky tannins.

Mixed case of Qupé Marsanne, Los Olivos District 2018, Qupe Grenache, Santa Barbara County 2018 and Syrah Bien Nacido Vineyard, Santa Maria Valley 2017

Simply stunning, evocative deep purple, with black fruited aromas, a hint of tar and the classic lift of white pepper.

Jancis robinson 16++ points: Lustrous mid ruby. Deep, brooding, sweet cherry on the nose. Succulent, if a little austere right now, but with plenty of potential. (WS)

Jancis Robinson 17 points: Mid to deep ruby. Dark, brooding and sweet with the merest suggestion of gingerbread. Ripe cherry fruit and lots of juice on the finish. Very long and supple and with delicious, chewy tannins. (WS)

Greg Sherwood, MW: 96+/100 and Platter's 5 stars!

Intense and generous red blend of Grenache and Mourvèdre, Vacqueyras is often referred to as a sibling of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, with its rich black fruit and white pepper characters.

Appearance: deep garnet hue. Nose: intense and generous with notes of black fruit (black cherry and blackberry), and then spicy touches (white pepper).

Weather vagaries and Meerlust’s exacting quality requirements determine that not every vintage is worthy of our flagship red blend Rubicon. Thus is born, in rare years, our collector’s Meerlust Red 2019. The Red 2019 is a blend of  Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot aged in French oak for 17 months.

Petite Sirah is a close relative to Syrah. Like Syrah, it is a dark-coloured grape that yields wines with floral aromas, deep colour and full, rich tannins. To moderate tannins, we fermented the grapes de-stemmed, as whole berries. Aging in twenty-five percent new oak over sixteen months has softened the wine.
