A delicious Brut Rosé with its charming, pale silver-pink hue and exuberant character, this Brut Rosé is a beautiful and striking accompaniment to any special occasion. Lively sparkling yet pleasant in the mouth. The beautiful hue of this wine is caused by a special enzymatic reaction during the transportation of the Pinot Noir fruit. The Brut Rosé has a powerful scent with a noticeable presence of pinot noir and aromas of strawberries, raspberries and cherries. The taste experience is wonderfully fresh, exuberant and flirty, but at the same time elegant and structured. A full-fledged all-rounder.
This Brut Rosé from the South African winery Graham Beck is made from the perfect mix of the two classic Cap Classique varieties, the Chardonnay and the Pinot Noir, from the estates in Robertson and Stellenbosch. The grapes are always picked by hand and then transported directly to the cellars where they are pressed. Only the best quality juice is used for fermentation. The musts then undergo separate fermentation and a sophisticated blend is then made. When the right mix is made, the wine is bottled and left in the bottle for about 15 to 18 months. This Sparkle wine, made in a Champagne (Method Traditionelle) way, is a single vintage wine from 1 vintage and is not blended. 90/100 Suckling
Delicious to enjoy on a terrace (as an aperitif) and also very tasty with fish, desserts with fruit.
