Tasting Note

In its youth Rustenberg's Malbec exhibits very attractive purple hues with dark fruit flavours such as plum, blackberry and violets, along with pepper and tobacco. As the wine ages it will reveal a more savoury fruit profile.

Product Notes

Rustenberg Malbec is a rich and complex red wine hailing from one of South Africa's most renowned wine estates. The wine boasts aromas of dark berries, black cherry, and hints of plum, which give way to complex flavors of dark chocolate, violets, and spicy black pepper on the palate. Full-bodied and well-structured, Rustenberg Malbec is built to pair with hearty, meaty dishes and aged cheeses. This wine is aged in French oak barrels for up to 16 months, giving it an added layer of depth and complexity. With its velvety tannins and long, satisfying finish, Rustenberg Malbec is a must-try for any wine enthusiast looking to explore the rich flavors of South Africa's winemaking traditions.

About the Winery

Rustenberg

The history of Rustenberg dates back to 1682. At that time, Roelof Pasman of Meurs recognised the potential of grapevine cultivation and wine production the place held. By 1781, he saw to it that about 3000 wine cases got created at the farm. The rate doubled as the century progressed towards its end. It compelled the winery to build a cellar. The produced wines have been bottled here for a continuous period ever since 1892.
