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
A stunning blend with a brilliant red rim and a deep red centre. Initial aromas of crushed red berries and cherry tobacco, accented with oak spice and pencil shavings, evolve into generous black cherry notes. The palate offers a vibrant mix or red fruit flavours, transitioning to a refined, silky mouthfeel. Velvety texture and dense structure hint at excellent ageing potential.
Food Pairing
This vintage pairs beautifully with beef entrecote, complemented by the earthy flavours of pan-fried pink oyster mushrooms, the sweetness of cherry-glazed baby beetroot and the rich depth of a bone marrow jus.
