Anthonij Rupert Optima 1.5L

A dry Cabernet Sauvignon from the Western Cape, bottled in a 1.5-liter magnum bottle. It is made for a set table with several guests.

Anthonij Rupert is a family winery in the South African Western Cape, around Franschhoek. The Optima focuses on Cabernet Sauvignon, a variety that ripens in plenty of sun at the Cape and develops dark, powerful fruit.

Typical for the grape variety are aromas of cassis and blackberry, plus cedar wood and a trace of pencil lead. On the palate, it is dry, with a clear tannin structure and a spicy, lingering finish.

Serve it at 16–18 °C, preferably in a large carafe. It pairs well with grilled entrecôte, leg of lamb with rosemary, braised beef cheeks or mature Gouda. The magnum is suitable for family celebrations, a long Sunday dinner or a barbecue evening with friends.

The Winery

Anthonij Rupert

Discover the fascinating world of Anthonij Rupert, a renowned wine farm in the picturesque Franschhoek Valley, surrounded by the majestic Groot Drakenstein Mountains in South Africa. The Rupert family acquired this historic estate in the 17th century and continued the wine tradition with passion.

In 2005, the entire property passed to Johan Rupert, who named the estate after his late brother Anthonij Rupert. Today, after extensive renovation, Anthonij Rupert is considered one of the most innovative wineries.
