Product Description:
In the glass, the wine displays a radiant golden hue with youthful green reflections. A fine, lively perlage forms an elegant mousse. On the nose, aromas of lemon, grapefruit, white peach, and pear unfold, accompanied by delicate notes of brioche, spices, and toasted almonds that gain depth with aeration. On the palate, the Cap Classique presents itself as elegant and multi-layered, with notes of citrus fruits, apricot, Granny Smith apple, and juicy peach. A creamy texture is supported by a fresh, vibrant acidity and leads to a long, harmonious finish. A complex, rich, yet lively Cap Classique with perfect balance.

Vinifikation
The grapes for this exceptional Cap Classique Blanc de Blancs originate from the estate’s oldest and best parcels in Robertson, grown on lime-rich, calcareous soils. Five different Chardonnay clones contribute to the distinct complexity and minerality of the base wines. The harvest was carried out by hand in the early morning hours, followed by gentle whole-bunch pressing, using only the cuvée fraction. 46% of the base wine fermented in neutral French oak barrels and large foudres, the rest in stainless steel tanks – for depth and structure without dominant oak influence. After five months of aging on the fine lees, the wine was blended and bottled for the second fermentation. It then matured on the lees for 60 months before being disgorged – the result is a Cap Classique of precision, elegance, and distinct yeast complexity.
