This wine will pair particularly well with crispy squid tubes and tentacles, charred lime yoghurt, shaved fennel and a citrus dressing.

The grapes were hand-picked from mid February to beginning March 2018 with an average yield of 8 ton per hectare.

Matured in 300 litre French oak barrels for 11 months, of which one-third was new barrels.

After whole cluster pressing only the free-run juice was used of which 15% was fermented and matured in concrete egg tanks to give the freshness, vibrancy and lemon lime characteristics to the wine. A further 15% was fermented and matured in Foundres, which aids in creating the texture and softness of the wine.

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.
