Lormarins
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
Pale blush-pink hue – partridge eye. Gentle fruity nose with stone fruit (nectarine and white peach), overlaid with a delicate white blossom note.The same flavours can be found on the palate: appealingly vibrant and fresh nectarine, peach and apricot. Delightful succulence with some soft red berry flavours apparent too. The wine is well structured with a fleshy mid-palate and long, rewarding aftertaste of lemon zest and a touch of lees. With its palate weight and mouthfeel, along with its vivid fruitiness, this is a good food wine.
Food Pairing
Serve it ideally with light dishes such as seafood or a delicious salad.
