Contemporary Meerlust is an exciting fusion of the refreshingly modern and the tearlessly classical. Situated in the heart of South Africa’s verdant Cape winelands, it is one of the oldest wine estates in the region, its acclaimed wines savoured by connoisseurs across the globe. Meerlust’s name – meaning “sea pleasure” – is an allusion to its fortuitous position close to the sea, one of the favourable conditions which has contributed, over the years, to producing the fine, award-winning wines which have contributed to the Estate’s distinguished reputation. Merlot, Pinot Noir and Rubicon, or the newly released Chardonnay, wine drinkers and collectors recognize the exceptional quality distinctive to the Meerlust label. But Meerlust also has a glorious history animated by the eight generations of the Myburgh family who have lived and farmed there. Its name has become unanimous with warm and welcoming hospitality over the centuries, enjoyed by the many eminent guests who have savoured its unique and timeless ambience.
