Rijk’s performed incredibly well at the 2013 Old Mutual Trophy Wine Show.
Now in its 12th year, the competition is widely considered the country’s most revered wine selection process and attracts more than 1 000 wines annually – all rigorously assessed ‘blind’ by a panel of highly regarded international and local palates.

2. The Old Mutual Trophy for Best White Wine Overall
3. The Old Mutual International Judges’ Trophy.
