About Meerlust Estate
Meerlust’s manor stands on a granite outcrop in Stellenbosch’s Eerste River valley, five kilometres from False Bay. Henning Huising received the farm in 1693 and named it Meerlust, or pleasure of the sea; the Myburgh family acquired it in 1756. Eight generations of the Myburgh family have since cared for the property.
All Meerlust wines are made from estate-grown grapes. Ocean breezes and evening mists temper vineyards whose soils include granite, shale, clay and river stones. Rubicon grew from Nico Myburgh’s 1967 visit to Bordeaux and his work with cellarmaster Giorgio Dalla Cia, with an experimental blend in 1978 followed by the first commercial vintage in 1980.
