Red Wine
Rupert & Rothschild Classique 2014, Coastal Region W.O., South Africa: This South African red wine is produced by Anthonij Rupert & Benjamin de Rothschild and so elegant with great finesse and length. France comes to South Africa and picks up some muscle yet keeps its balletic grace. I’d serve this at a dinner party or give it as a gift. Finishes with dried herbs and tobacco leaves. Savoury, meaty, racy. Pair with rare filet mignon. Yes please! Food pairings: beef. Drink: 2016 - 2019 717991 13.5% XD 750 mL $25.95 Score: 90/100. February 2017.
