This delicious and versatile South African sparkling wine can rightly be called everyone's friend. Everyone loves it! The smells alone stimulate the senses. Delicious aromas of lemon, apple, melon, pear, peach and apricot ensure a delicious freshness. An aromatic, delicate wine with an excellent balance between the Chardonnay and the Pinot aromas. The Graham Beck Brut is therefore highly recommended to enjoy on a terrace during a summer day.
The brut is made from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes that are picked by hand and then immediately transported to the cellars where they are pressed. 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 15 to 18 months.
Delicious as an aperitif and also delicious with fish, soft white cheese and with a dessert with fruit.

| Sommy Pairing Beschrijving | Fris en levendig met tonen van citroen en limoenschil, groene appel en perzik, een subtiele ziltigheid en een fijne mousse die de wijn knisperend maakt. Door die frisse zuurgraad en het lichte fruitprofiel snijdt de wijn vet en versterkt delicate smaken, waardoor hij perfect aansluit bij gegrilde of licht aangebraden witte vis, ceviche of gestoomde schelpdieren, en ook mooi contrasteert met romige witschimmelkazen en fruitige nagerechten. Extra geslaagd zijn bereidingen waarbij de vis kort en heet wordt gegaard of rauw en zuur gemarineerd wordt, en bij kazen werkt een stukje stokbrood of een lichte honingcompote uitstekend. |

The NV Brut , which carries six grams per liter of residual sugar and was disgorged December 2016, is an equal blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. It has a fresh lime and sea spray bouquet, well defined with a light honeysuckle aroma. The palate is well balanced with citrus peel on the entry. It might not be as persistent as other South African MCCs, but it is bounding with freshness and delivers a tangy orange-pith finish. How how many champagnes can you get change from with a twenty dollar bill?
