The Rupert & Rothschild partnership was formed in 1997 by the late Dr Anton Rupert of South Africa and the late Baron Edmond de Rothschild of France. Their vision and guiding principles were carried forward by their sons, the late Anthonij Rupert and Baron Benjamin de Rothschild. Today the Rupert family and Baron Benjamin de Rothschild share this prestigious partnership in wine production.
True to the partnership between the Rupert & Rothschild families, this classic Bordeaux-styled blend combines the best of Cape and French tradition in one of South Africa's most popular red blends of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. The wine has inviting cranberry and raspberry aromas with an earthy, mineral focus supported by well integrated oak, smooth ripe tannins and a lingering cinnamon and walnut finish of pleasing length and balance.
Intense dark blueberry and chocolate aromas with thyme and pine nut flavours. A tight structure with depth and roasted coffee bean and cedarwood notes.
Crisp lemon notes with sublte grapefruit nuances and smooth creamy nougat flavours followed by lingering macadamia nut understones.
