Established in 1694 Rust en Vrede is proud to be part of a remarkable three hundred year old wine tradition. Since 1977 the Engelbrecht family has specialized in the exclusive production of red wine with the focus on Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Proprietor Jean Engelbrecht has worked to establish Rust en Vrede as one of South Africa’s premium red wine estates with full-bodied and complex wines that reflect the uniqueness of the Helderberg terroir.
Expressive nose of creamy cherry puree, and blackberries with a floral perfume of violet, and notes of spicy ginger and cloves. Fine, elegant tannins with an undertone of savoury grip are balanced by fresh acidity. Concentrated black fruit on the palate, with bramble, blackberry, mulberry and a hint of black pepper. A finely balanced, elegant Syrah.
