Buy or order Rupert & Rothschild Vignerons wine

True gems from the Southern Hemisphere. Anyone who still claims that South African wines are neither exciting nor boring should try a Rupert & Rothschild wine. These South African wines embody elegance, finesse, and luxury, with a subtle classicism. They are well-balanced glasses that are perfect for a convivial gathering with friends.

Rothschild's South African wine

Rupert & Rothschild isn't just any winery. Let's be honest: it doesn't have a centuries-old and captivating history either. It doesn't have a fairytale foundation or an idyllic character. What Rupert & Rothschild is, however, is an intensive collaboration between perhaps the world's two greatest winemakers. First and foremost, we have Dr. Anton Rupert, a winemaker who made a splash with his Franschhoek wines. Then there's a true icon: Baron Edmond de Rothschild. This fine man is the great-grandchild of the founder of Baron Mouton Rothschild, and thus part of one of the world's most famous dynasties.

Special wines from South Africa

Dr. Anton Rupert and Baron Edmond de Rothschild decided to collaborate in the 1990s. South Africa was chosen. The winery is located near the village of Klapmuts, between Stellenbosch and Paarl. It is therefore truly situated in the beating heart of South African wine.

The collaboration has a clear goal: to produce the finest South African wines, but with a distinctly French influence. Specifically: Bordeaux. Both Rupert & Rothschild are among the best in their field. A collaboration between these two is therefore bound to result in world-class wines.

What is the finest wine from Rupert & Rothschild?

Rupert & Rothschild has just three wines with which they've been conquering the world for a quarter of a century. They have a white wine, the Rupert & Rothschild Vignerons Baroness Nadine. This white wine is a bit of an oddity, as it's based on Chardonnay. Not exactly a grape you immediately associate with Bordeaux. However, both Rupert and Rothschild wanted to make room in their vineyards for this all-rounder.

Rupert & Rothschild's red wines share one thing in common: the Bordeaux grapes define their character. The vineyards, therefore, boast abundant Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Petit Verdot. These wines are used to make, among other things, the Rupert & Rothschild Vignerons Classique. Another highly successful wine is the Rupert & Rothschild Vignerons Baron Edmond. This is the absolute cream of the crop, and even a true wine connoisseur can hardly distinguish it from a top Bordeaux wine.
