Product Notes

Rustenberg RM Nicholson is a premium red wine from South Africa that is rich and complex, boasting a deep ruby color. This full-bodied wine has intense aromas of dark fruit, black cherry, blackcurrant, and spice, with hints of vanilla and oak. On the palate, it has a generous structure with firm tannins and flavors of red and black fruit. There is a subtle minerality present that further enhances the complexity of the wine. The RM Nicholson is made using a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, creating a wine that is both elegant and powerful. It pairs well with red meats, game, and strong cheeses.

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.
