Rupert & Rothschild

At the foot of the spectacular Simonsberg mountain, in the Franschhoek valley (South Africa), lies the historic French Huguenot farm Fredericksburg, founded in 1690 and now home to Rupert & Rothschild Vignerons. The Rupert & Rothschild partnership was founded in 1997 by Dr Anton Rupert of South Africa and Baron Edmond de Rothschild of France. Their vision and guiding principles were continued by their sons, Anthony Rupert and Baron Benjamin de Rothschild. Today the Rupert family and Baron Benjamin de Rothschild share this prestigious partnership in wine production. Each wine has its own history and treasure, which Edmond de Rothschild imagined over 40 years ago when he breathed new life into unknown lands to create wines acclaimed around the world. Regarding the choice and production of wines, Chardonnay occupies a place of honor in the Rupert & Rothschild winery. Furthermore, the scrupulous care lavished on each Barons de Rothschild reflects an exceptional commitment to quality that gives them such rare value.
