About
We are a 4th generation family business that has been farming in the Elgin Valley for more than 120 years. We are proud to have pioneered Elgin as a premium wine-growing region. Our focus is on producing world-class wines that reflect the uniqueness of our valley, but more specifically of our estate De Rust. We want to achieve this while being mindful of our actions both on the environment and on our community. To this end we have more than half our estate under conservation. We are closely connected to De Rust Futura school which was founded by our grandmother Gertrude Cluver more than 60 years ago.
Product Features
- After fermentation, the wine was transferred to French oak barrels, stainless steel tanks and 5000 litre wooden vats for the completion of malolactic fermentation.
- The wine is then partially matured in French oak for 9 months to add complexity and silkiness.
- Beautiful aromas of red fruits intermingle with roasted spices followed by a delicious, elegant silky palate of poached ripe plums resulting in a medium-bodied wine with soft edges.
- Crafted for drinking now, but it has the structure and fruit to be enjoyed for two years and beyond.
- Serve with rosemary and mustard infused lamb, Asian style fish dishes, or vegetarian lentil burgers.
