Anthonij Rupert Blend

Louis Coetzee — Mon, 10 May 2021 14:50:54 +0000

Subtle floral perfume with hints of blue- and black fruits with spice-dusted plum.The mouth is richly fruited with the same plum, spice, blue- and black berries. Succulent and generous but reined in and not overblown – as supple and lithe as a gymnast. Elegantly structured with well-knit oak. Long, refined finish.

Anthonij Rupert Cabernet Franc

The deep, dark colour gives a hint of what’s to come: blue- and black berry fruit with notes of freshly turned earth, pencil shavings and a brush of dried oreganum.The palate is equally complex and inviting with those rich, ripe, dark berry notes – but bright and inviting, not muscular and heavy. Spicy with graphite, licorice and more than a hint of ink. Complex, layered and refined with beautifully supple dry, fine tannin from integrated oak. Long, lithe and pliable on the finish.

Intriguing complex nose of shy perfume, red and black fruit and faint spice note with even a hint of licorice in the mix.On the palate, the first sensation is textural – velvety, smooth and silky. Spicy with black berries, rich fruitcake and understated touch of tobacco leaf. There’s a soft squeeze of dry tannin without the wine being grippy or astringent. Lovely integration of oak and fruit which will aid ageing. Superbly poised and balanced with lovely length. Elegance retained to the end.

Anthonij Rupert Syrah

Understated fynbos edge to plump black plum and vanilla spice with a hint of violets on the nose. Complex and intriguing.The palate is simultaneously plush-textured and svelte but multi-fac-eted with plum-, blueberries-, ink and spice notes. A focused, linear wine which is graceful with beautifully integrated mature oak notes. The tail is long, spicy, rewarding and intricate.
