Rupert et Rothschild Vignerons
At the foot of Simonsberg in Franschhoek, South Africa, Rupert & Rothschild Vignerons unites two wine dynasties around a single aim: Bordeaux discipline expressed in Cape light. Founded in 1997, the partnership set out to craft world-class wines from a focused, estate-driven approach.
Its home is the historic Fredericksburg farm—rooted in early Cape viticulture—yet the mindset is resolutely modern. Bordeaux varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot are harvested and vinified by block, then blended with precision to capture balance and site character.
Barrel maturation in French oak adds definition and longevity, while the valley’s mountain influence preserves freshness and line. Rupert & Rothschild Vignerons delivers a South African signature with European poise: structured, polished and built on meticulous craft rather than excess.Rupert et Rothschild Vignerons
