Rupert & Rothschild
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.
Description
This classic Bordeaux blend, displaying a deep ruby hue, initially expresses aromas of raspberry and thyme which evolve into subtle cinnamon spice and tobacco from the meticulous oak ageing. On the palate, intriguing layers of plum, cassis and black cherry are brought together harmoniously by a firm, yet refined, velvety texture.
Food Pairing
This wine will pair well with beef oxtail slowly braised with crushed black cherry, mixed spice, and topped with herbed bread.
