VARIETY: Chardonnay 51% , Pinot Noir 49% VINTAGE: Non Vintage
AREA OF ORIGIN: Western Cape, South Africa.

VINEYARD:

A multi-regional, multi-clonal selection of carefully chosen, hand-picked Pinot Noir and Chardonnay parcels from across the Western Cape including from our very own estate, combining distinct terroir influences to create an alluring and succulent Rosé.

HARVEST DETAILS:

Both varietals are handpicked; Chardonnay at 18-19.5°B for fruit and elegance. Pinot Noir at 18.5-20°B for complexity and length of flavour.

CELLAR:

Produced in our Méthode Cap Classique cellar in Robertson.

CELLAR TREATMENT:

Whole bunch pressing ensures fractional recovery. After settling of juice the two varietals are fermented separately. They are then cross blended along with reserve wine if necessary, bottled and left for 15 to 18 months yeast contact time before disgorgement.

TASTING NOTES:

Light yeasty aromas, limey fresh fruit on the nose and rich creamy complexity on the palate. The exceptionally fine mousse contributes the freshness and finesse.
