Jean Roi Cap Provincial Rose 2023

R310.00

Region: Franschhoek

Tasting Notes:

Soft floral cherry and blueberry nose. The palate is reminiscent of a fruit salad with its apple, melon, berries, cherries and strawberry flavours. All at peak ripeness, rounded but balanced by bright acid. Overall, there is good focus and body with a long, leesy tail that adds another textural nuance.

Anthonij Rupert Wyne was founded on the farm L’Ormarins in Franschhoek. Originally owned by the late Anthonij Rupert, who passed away in 2001, the farm was taken over by his brother Johann Rupert in 2003. It was Johann Rupert who constructed a state-of-the-art winemaking facility on the estate, and the beginnings of what was to become a sprawling enterprise with a focus on terroir specific wines.
L’Ormarins Estate pays homage to Jean Roi, French Huguenot and pioneer of these historic vineyards. He was one of 150 exiled French Huguenots who emigrated to the Cape and settled in Olifantshoek (what was to become Franschhoek) between 1688 and 1689. Roi was granted sixty morgen and named it after his hometown Lourmarin in Provence. Jean Roi Cap Provincial Rosé is made in the traditional Provencal method, as is still done in his hometown today.
Vines for this blend are all planted on south-facing slopes on their Riebeeksrivier Farm which is situated on the slopes of the Kasteelberg, overlooking the Swartland. Vines are planted at elevations of 350m – 400m above sea level in shale soil.
Blend: Grenache 63%, Cinsault 23%, Shiraz 14%.
