Meerlust: Beyond the Rubicon (Hardcover)
Nestled in the heart of the Stellenbosch wine district lies Meerlust Wine Estate, producer of the iconic Rubicon. For over three centuries and seven generations, the land has been tended to by the Myburgh family, who transformed it into one of the country’s most revered wine estates.
The Rubicon red Bordeaux blend, first made in 1980 by Nico Myburgh and his Italian-born winemaker Giorgio Dalla Cia, set Meerlust on a new trajectory. It announced not only a new path for Meerlust and the Myburgh family, but also a revolution in wine style. Today, this legacy lives on under owner Hannes Myburgh and cellar master Wim Truter.
Meerlust: Beyond the Rubicon delves deeper than the acclaim of a single blend. It is a celebration of the timeless bond between land, time, and artistry.
