Anthonij Rupert Winery
The Anthonij Rupert Winery, which still bears the name of the founder and is now managed by younger generations, is one of the most exciting projects in South African winemaking. Although one should actually speak in the plural. The Ruperts have long since crossed the boundaries once set by the slopes of the Groot Drakenstein Mountains in Franschhoek and today produce wine in four different regions.
Anthonij Rupert Wyne is a winery located in the picturesque Franschhoek Wine Valley in South Africa. Visitor facilities include the Franschhoek Motor Museum as well as two tasting rooms, each with its own unique offerings. A free tram service allows guests to shuttle between these facilities and make a day of their visit without having to drive themselves. Restaurant, wine tasting, museum, high tea service, panoramic tour, farm shop & private dining
Tasting notes
The Anthonij Rupert Sangiovese 2022 is an exquisite red wine from South Africa, distinguished by its fine spice nuances and ripe aromas of black cherry and black currant. This wine is characterized by its fresh, juicy, and soft structure. On the palate, the Anthonij Rupert Sangiovese shows itself fresh and juicy with a soft entry. The ripe black fruits, already hinted at on the nose, unfold in full splendor on the tongue. Spice nuances add additional complexity and interest, while a light, dry tannin content gives the wine structure.
Grape Variety
Chenin Blanc is a widely cultivated, old white wine grape variety that has been grown in France (in Anjou – Touraine) since the 9th century. Compared to other white wine grape varieties, this variety is very productive. This leads to a very high quality of the white wine when reduced on the vine.
In South Africa, Chenin Blanc is the most widely grown white wine grape variety. The reason for this is primarily the very high diversity. For example, there are "wild-growing" vines (so-called Bush Vines) that are usually not irrigated. For this reason, the vines penetrate very deep into the ground with their roots to reach water. These Chenin Blancs therefore have a stronger depth and complexity.
The grape variety can also be aged very fresh and fruity in stainless steel tanks, developing into a very nice summer wine. Through the Aged in oak barrels, one obtains very complex and full-bodied white wines. The aromas of Chenin Blanc wines range from peach, apricot, and tropical fruits to honey and melon.
