In 1997, under the leadership of Dr Anton Rupert and Baron Edmond de Rothschild, Rupert & Rothschild Vignerons was established. Both men later relinquished the reigns to their respective sons.

Vinification Details
The grapes were handpicked from mid February to end March 2012 with an average yield of 8 ton per hectare. Fermented in wooden vats and stainless steel tanks. 16 to 20 days skin contact resulted in excellent colour, concentration, aroma and flavour compounds. Matured for 22 months in new French Oak Barrels.

Great South African Wine

Quite an amazing bordeaux blend. It is very elegant, spicy, full bodied, earthy (mushroom) notes with a hint of plum, cherry and pepper and finally a hint of fine tannins on the tail. Worth the money and would recommend.

Excellent wine

This vineyard produces consistently excellent wines & this is no exception. A lovely Bordeaux style blend. Drinks well now but would age nicely. At time of writing Ocado says current vintage is 2015 but we received 2016, still tastes great.

First tasted this on the Rupert & Rothschild vineyard in Cape Town and was true to form. A fantastic bottle and a must try!
