Appealing spice, roasted stone fruit and hint of citrus on the nose. In the mouth it is fresh, zesty, bright and lively, packed with succulent stone fruit: nectarine, peach and apricot.
A subtle grapefruit tang and broad lees element adds an extra dimension to the elegant, structured palate. Cohesive and refined, the wine is poised with a wonderfully long yet refreshing tail.

The fruit was harvested by hand at optimal ripeness and transported to the cellar in refrigerated trucks.The grapes were whole bunch pressed and the juice settled overnight before racking the following day.
Spontaneous fermentation occurred in stainless steel tanks (65%) and a combination of older French oak foudre and 4th fill 300ℓ barrels. The wine was matured on the lees for 12 months before being blended and bottled.

Anthonij Rupert Wyne was founded on the farm L’Ormarins in Franschhoek. Originally owned by the late Anthonij Rupert, who passed away in 2001, the farm was taken over by his brother Johann Rupert in 2003.
It was Johann Rupert who constructed a state-of-the-art winemaking facility on the estate, and the beginnings of what was to become a sprawling enterprise with a focus on terroir specific wines.
