WHY IS IT SPECIAL?

It’s one of Anthonij Rupert’s flagship single-varietal wines, demonstrating both depth and refinement in their coastal Stellenbosch/Franschhoek terroir.

TASTING NOTES:

Nose: Ripe blackcurrant and cassis lead, layered with violet florals, cedar, and subtle Christmas-spice undertones.

Palate: A rich core of dark fruit — think cassis, plum, and black cherry — balanced by cedar, tobacco, soft spice, and fine-grained tannins.

Finish: The finish is long, refined, and elegant, with lingering dark fruit, complex oak spice, and a subtle mineral edge.

Product details

Anthonij Rupert Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted by Anthonij Rupert Wyne from vineyard sites on their L’Ormarins estate in Franschhoek and surrounding regions. The wine is aged in French oak, reflecting Rupert’s dedication to structure, finesse, and Bordeaux-inspired elegance.

Cellaring Potential: This wine is built to age. With proper storage, younger vintages can develop beautifully over 8–15 years, gaining complexity and tertiary notes like leather, cigar box, and forest floor.
