Rupert & Rothschild - Baron Edmond 2004 "a classic french blend"

Anyone familiar with South African wines will have had or at least heard of this wine. It consistently gets top marks from the John Platter guide for a reason.
It is a class act, another fine example of a collaboration from a major french producer and a local winery. The wine is a classic french blend: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and a bit of Cabernet Franc. The 15% alcohol, is not very french, but typical for a South African red.
The wine is still young but drinking beautifully, and I look forward to having it again over the years.
