Description

Sporting Connection: Johann Rupert, owner of the Rupert Wine Estate, has deep, long term links with sport, not just rugby but also golf, and their values fit so well with the ethos of Sporting Wine Club. As well as being Chairman of Richemont, the parent company to Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, Johann has also done much to advance the values and wider potential of sports in society. He played a pivotal role in founding the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation in 1990, which harnesses the power of sports to improve the lives of disadvantaged young people around the world, and co-founded the Sports Science Institute at University of Cape Town. A former cricketer and accomplished golfer himself, he was inducted in 2007 into the South African Sports Hall of Fame and in 2009 into the South African Golf Hall of Fame.

VINTAGE NOTES: Another cold, wet winter resulting in good dormancy and healthy water levels prior to the growing season. The cool, wet weather continued into spring which in turn resulted in delayed but relatively even bud break, flowering and fruit set. Very favourable conditions for mildew persisted during the growing season which added pressure to meticulous canopy management. Very cool conditions during the early summer period delayed ripening and ensured that the vineyards were in very good condition going into another late vintage. Early January saw the arrival of warm temperatures which continued throughout the vintage well into March, allowing for good flavour development and ripening, despite the lower levels of acidity. An exceptional vintage which promises to deliver outstanding wines.

WINEMAKING: This premium rosé is made in the same dry style as the great rosé wines of Provence, France. Grapes were hand-picked into lug boxes and transported to the cellar in refrigerated trucks. Great care was taken to minimise the amount of colour extraction from the grapes through gentle pressing, before overnight settling. Spontaneous fermentation by indigenous yeast lasted between 2 to 4 weeks in both stainless steel and older French oak barrels (14%). The wine spent 4 months on the fine lees before being blended and bottled.

TASTING NOTES: Pale blush pink hue. Red fruit aromas with upfront raspberry and strawberry, mingle with appealing stone fruit aromas.
Juicy, fresh and lively in the mouth, the raspberry and strawberry flavours mingle with bright, nectarine and zesty citrus notes. Crisp and vivid, the wine is light bodied and refreshing. Ideal for summer enjoyment.
