Rupert & Rothschild Vignerons Baron Edmond

The Rupert & Rothschild Baron Edmond is an iconic red wine from South Africa that bears the signature of two great names: the traditional Rupert family from South Africa and the world-renowned Rothschild wine dynasty from France. This cuvée made from Bordeaux grape varieties is produced in Franschhoek, one of the country's most renowned wine regions, and stands for precision, elegance and long-lasting structure at the highest international level.

The classic from South Africa. It combines the elegant style of a Bordeaux with the power and aromatic splendor of a Cape red wine in exemplary fashion.

The aroma is multi-layered with notes of mint, cedar wood and cassis. On the palate, the wine is elegant with a firm body, fine-grained tannins and plenty of extract, power and mellowness. Even at a young age, it offers intense drinking pleasure at a high level.

Blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot

Matured for 18 months in new 225-liter French oak barrels.

Rupert & Rothschild Vignerons

Am Fuße des Simonsberg im Tal des bekannten südafrikanischen Weinbaugebiet Franschhoek liegt die historische Hugenotten Farm Fredericksburg. Sie wurde im Jahre 1690 gegründet und ist heute Heimat von Rupert & Rothschild Vignerons, einer erfolgreichen Partnerschaft zweier Weindynastien. Die Rupert & Rothschild Partnerschaft wurde 1997 von Dr. Anton Rupert aus Südafrika und Baron Edmond de Rothschild aus Frankreich gebildet. Ihre Söhne Anthonij Rupert und Baron Benjamin de Rothschild führten die Partnerschaft fort. Beide Familien sind im Weinbau weltweit bekannt. Die Familie Rupert besitzt mit den Weingüteren L’Omarin und La Motte, ebenfalls in Franschhoek, erstklassige Weingüter. Rothschild ist mit den Weinadressen Château Clarke sowie Peyre-Lebade und Malmaison in der Bordeaux-Gegend verwurzelt.

Mit Schalk-Willem Joubert verfügt Rupert & Rothschild über einen erfolgreichen Weinmacher. Unterstützung erfährt er auch vom Starönologen Michel Rolland aus Bordeaux, der mehrmals im Jahr nach Franschhoek kommt.

Zwei hervorragende Blends aus Cabernet Sauvignon und Merlot werden bei Rupert & Rothschild erzeugt sowie ein erstklassiger Chardonnay mit französischer Klasse.

Product recommendation

Lanzerac Merlot
The grapes for Lanzerac Merlot come from vineyards located in the Jonkershoek Valley near Stellenbosch. These vineyards are divided into four different parcels of land with vines that are between 9 and 17 years old, covering an area of 20.31 acres. This terroir consists of deep red, decomposed granite soils and is located between 125 and 400 metres above sea level. After arrival in the cellar, the grapes were selected by hand and destemmed. Before they were gently pressed, the loose grapes underwent a second selection by hand. Subsequently, the grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks with pumping over twice a day, allowing an optimal extraction of colour and aromas.The Merlot matured for 12 months in second- and third-fill French oak casks. The optimal point of the ripening process was reached by regular racking. This appetizing Lanzerac Merlot has a lot to offer and leaves nothing to be desired.On the nose, it offers concentrated aromas of black fruit, along with sweet notes of vanilla and spicy aromas. The tannins give the wine more complexity, gently underpinning aromas of plums, black cherries, cooked strawberry purée and dark chocolate, finely rounded off by a long, integrated finish.The Lanzerac Merlot goes beautifully with veal chops and portabello mushrooms, gnocchi in a red pepper sauce with crispy pancetta or with a creamy gruyere and parmesan cheese risotto.

The Thelema Merlot is aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, 25% of which are new barrels and the rest in older barrels, which adds depth, complexity and subtle spice.This Merlot is an excellent accompaniment to grilled meat, game, hearty stews or mature cheese.
