About this Item
2004 Baron Edmund
1 (1 x 1) 6000ml
Rupert & Rothschild Vignerons was established in 1997 under the leadership of Dr. Anton Rupert and Baron Edmond de Rothschild. The men later handed over the reins to their respective sons: Anthonij Rupert and Baron Benjamin de Rothschild. Few SA wine brands have been able to penetrate the premium global market quite like R&R with their distinctive Bordeaux-style blends from the Cape.

Critics Ratings
‘Blockbuster Cabernet-Merlot blend - 54/46 in very extracted 2004. Rich, complex, jammy aromas rounded off with showy oak (80% new). Heady 15% alcohol points to power rather than finesse.’ - Platter’s SA Wine Guide 2009, 4*
