Description
In a nutshell:
A smart Cap Classique with zippy citrus, crisp green apple, and a hint of brioche - refreshingly classy.
The lowdown:
Méthode Cap Classique is South Africa's answer to Champagne, offering top-notch fizz at refreshingly modest prices. This example is a blend of two-thirds Pinot Noir and one-third Chardonnay, made using the best juice from the press. A minimum of 18 months on lees adds a subtle richness with hints of brioche, perfectly balancing the crisp, clean character. Zesty citrus acidity runs through the wine, keeping it lively and fresh. It's a super refreshing, well-made sparkler and a brilliant showcase of what Cap Classique wines are all about.
The Producer:
Tucked away In Stellenbosch's Schapenberg hills, Journey's End Vineyards have a view that would make even the most jaded traveller pause. It's not just a pretty spot though - this part of the world is tailor-made for growing grapes. Owned by the Gabb family since 1995, originally from Shropshire in the UK, they've grown from modest beginnings into a highly respected estate. Their philosophy is refreshingly straightforward: minimal intervention, maximum expression of the terroir. The results are wines that speak for themselves - and the steady stream of awards they get suggests they've struck the right balance between craft and nature.
When to drink:
Great as an aperitif, but if you're nibbling, try smoked salmon blinis, gougères, or scallop ceviche - elegant enough to keep up with its bright citrus and subtle brioche notes.
