Varietal: 37% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Merlot, 28% Cabernet Franc, 6% Malbec.

On the nose Optima has an intense hint of plum, fresh flowers and dried lavender. On the palate, this red wine confirms the aroma of fresh flowers and rich and spicy bush, with notes of aromatic herbs and fynbos.

Optima by Anthonij Rupert has a solid but elegant structure, with perfectly integrated and harmonious wood.

Persistent and highly distinguished finish. The wine is ready for an excellent tasting, but will reward further refinement in the bottle.

Origin

Wine of Origin Coastal Region, South Africa.

In the vineyard

The grapes selected for Anthonij Rupert Optima come from the L'Ormarins estate in Franschhoek and the Rooderust estate in Darling. Specific sites, with mainly decomposed granitic soil and unique climatic conditions, selected as the most suitable for producing the best grapes for the Optima blend.

In the cellar

The grapes are selected by an optical sorter, capable of identifying only the best quality bunches. The must ferments on the skins in different fermentation tanks and is then subjected to a prolonged maceration. The wine then matures in 225 liter French oak barrels (30% new) for 20 months.
