ANTHONIJ RUPERT OPTIMA 2022

Gentle aromas of fruitcake, dark berries and warm spice rise from the glass, with subtle floral notes and a hint of cracked pepper adding complexity. The palate is supple and textured, echoing the nose with layers of rich berry fruit and gentle fruitcake spice. A lively thread of spice brings freshness and energy, while the velvety mouthfeel adds depth and generosity. Well-integrated oak quietly supports the fruit, creating balance and harmony without dominating. The wine finishes long and poised, with lingering notes of spice and dark fruit. Equally rewarding to enjoy now or to cellar for added complexity.

Melon, nectarine and white peach with a light dusting of flint on the nose. Deliciously tangy and succulent on entry. Refreshing summer fruit salad with the melon and stone fruit joined by a lively green apple crunchiness. Vibrant, perky and zippy with bright, acidic citrus notes. Ideal for summertime lunches.

Clean, crisp lemon sherbet zest and biscuit nose. The palate follows the same track: vibrant, crisp, clean and tangy with bright freshness. Focused and poised with gentle but beguiling flavours of succulent lemon sherbet and understated trace of orange marmalade before a richer, rewarding, broad creamy toast, biscuit and brioche note from time on lees becomes apparent. Persistent dry tail.

A subtle floral hint lifts the rich nose of fruitcake, black berries, herb and peppery spice. Ripe, soft-textured and juicy black fruit is the first flavour in the mouth. Vibrant spice – nutmeg, pepper and cinnamon – then make their presence felt, followed by a creamy oak note. The wood, which is harmoniously knit with the fruit and fresh acid, lends both stature, frame and without taking over or dominating. Deeply rewarding with rounded mouthfeel and a long elegant tail. Genteel and refined.

Typical melange of spice, plum compote, fresh ripe cherry and a shy powdery florality on the nose. The entry is rich, sweetly raisined and spicy with a dry, nuttiness apparent from its time in aged oak barrels. The integration on this fortified wine is beautiful, both the oak and fruit as well as the spirit addition. Nothing dominates, so the individual components harmonise in elegant and subtle fashion. It’s both complex and engaging. Texturally, it’s as if the wine is wearing a velvety cloak of chocolate-covered raisins. Delicious, comforting, mouth-wateringly tasty and the farewell is suitably dry, spicy and lingering.
