Bright, elegant, and effortlessly layered, this Elandskloof Pinot Noir delivers a vivid expression of cool-climate terroir. Aromas of fresh raspberry, wild cherry, and subtle spice rise from the glass, underscored by earthy forest floor and leafy notes that add beautiful dimension. The palate is supple and juicy, opening with red berry vibrance and evolving into deeper tones of plum, spice, and minerality. Silky in texture yet structured, this wine walks the line between delicacy and depth, finishing long, lifted, and finely poised. A true reflection of high-altitude vineyards and thoughtful winemaking.
Grown in the cool, high-altitude valley of Elandskloof, these Pinot Noir vines ripen slowly, yielding fruit with bright acidity and refined structure. Hand-harvested in the early morning and fermented in small open-top tanks with gentle handling, the wine was aged for 10 months in seasoned French oak. The result is a site-driven expression of purity, balance, and finesse with exceptional ageing potential.

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.
