Rustenberg John X Merriman 2007

South Africa, Stellenbosch
Bordeaux Blend 46% Merlot / 36% Cabernet Sauvignon /
9% Cabernet Franc / 9% Petit Verdot

A complex wine with typical Rustenberg aromas of cellar spices, dark cherries and fynbos. The palate is well and is richly layered with fruit.  Ageing potential of another 8 to 10 years, but drinks well now.  Very elegant!
