About

Anthonij Rupert Wyne was founded on the farm L’Ormarins in Franschhoek. Originally owned by the late Anthonij Rupert, who passed away in 2001, the farm was taken over by his brother Johann Rupert in 2003. It was Johann Rupert who constructed a state-of-the-art winemaking facility on the estate, and the beginnings of what was to become a sprawling enterprise with a focus on terroir-specific wines.

Product Features

• A red blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Malbec.
• The wine was fermented dry on the skins in various fermentation tanks and underwent extended post-fermentation maceration.
• The wine was finally aged in 225L French oak barrels for 20 months with 30% new oak being used.
• Bold plum, hedgerow fruit with a tempting dried lavender perfume on the nose. 
• The wine confidently stalks onto the palate. 
• Sleek yet succulent with rich spicy forest floor and the same hedgerow notes from the nose. 
• A brush of herbs and fynbos adds interest. 
• The wine is structured with a firm core of oak which is supportive rather than prominent or overbearing. 
• Beautifully elegant and poised with lovely harmony all the way to its lingering and smart finish. 
• Drinking well now, but will reward additional patience and careful cellaring.
• Enjoy with various red meat dishes.
