Anthonij Rupert
Anthonij Rupert Wyne was founded on the farm L’Ormarins in Franschhoek. Originally owned by the late Anthonij Rupert who passed away in 2001 the farm was eventually taken over by his brother Johann Rupert in 2003 and the brand named after him. It was Johann Rupert who constructed a state-of-the-art winemaking facility catapulting the farm into a prestigious wine estate and the beginnings of what is now a sprawling enterprise. The focus is on terroir specific wines and therefore the ranges are made from a number of sites. Each site offers optimum varietal specific growing conditions allowing Anthonij Rupert Wyne to adhere to the requirements of their different brands.
Description
Subtle floral perfume with hints of blue- and black fruits with spice-dusted plum. The mouth is richly fruited with the same plum, spice, blue- and black berries. Succulent and generous but reined in and not overblown – as supple and lithe as a gymnast. Elegantly structured with well-knit oak. Long, refined finish.
Food Pairing
Butterfly leg of Karoo lamb on the braai with wild rosemary.
