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 is a polished Bordeaux-style blend showing ripe blackcurrant and dark cherry aromas layered with cedar and subtle tobacco notes. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with finely structured tannins, balanced acidity and a savoury, oak-framed finish that reflects both fruit purity and restraint.
Food Pairing
This wine pairs well with grilled or roasted red meats, lamb, beef stews and dishes with rich, savoury sauces. It also complements mature hard cheeses.
