Klein Constantia Cap Classique Blanc de Blanc 75cl Gift Boxed

A stunning Blanc de Blanc from one of South Africa's best wineries.

Grapes are selected from a single block, one of the oldest located on the lower slopes of Klein Constantia. Harvested early in the season in numerous batches to ensure complexity in freshness, fruit and intensity. This marks the first vintage that this dry Cap Classique was crafted with zero dosage.

TASTING NOTES

Light and vibrant in appearance. A lively bouquet of lemon zest and brioche flavours abound on the nose. The mousse is elegant with a fine bubble. Fresh and lively, the palate is expressive, dry and balanced by a zesty acidity. Flavours of limes conclude with a rewarding long crisp finish.

Grape variety 100% Chardonnay

Wine record

The grapes were whole-bunch pressed using only the freerun juice and fermented, before being aged in a combination of stainless steel tank and barrels for 7 months. Following blending, bottling and secondary fermentation, the wine was aged for a further 38 months before disgorging.
