Tasting Note

Rich cassis and mulberry with cedar and tobacco reveal Cabernet as the backbone to the blend, after which fresh red and black cherry with black pepper spice show the Syrah component. Intense fruit flavours are layered with mocha, Christmas cake, sandalwood and leather, bringing complexity to the wine. Fresh, fruity acidity balances the firm, coating tannins, culminating in a clean, dry finish that indicates good ageing potential.

About the Winery

Rust en Vrede

The origin of Rust en Vrede dates back to March 12th 1694. This is the date mentioned in the official Title Deed of the estate. In 1977, Jannie and Ellen, parents of the current proprietor, Jean Engelbrecht, purchased this estate in 1977, and started work on it right away. In the subsequent year, Jannie created the first vintage from this estate. A few years later, rigorous re-planting of vines took place here, and the team focussed on planting Syrah, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon varietals.
