The Allée Bleue Blanc de Blancs 2022 represents the ultimate expression of Chardonnay from the historic Franschhoek estate. Winemaker Van Zyl du Toit sources the fruit from the most pristine block of Chardonnay on the property to ensure exceptional quality. You will find that the specialized focus on a single-varietal Cap Classique results in a wine with remarkable finesse and vertical structure. Consequently, this sparkling wine serves as a brilliant showcase of the estate’s ongoing quest for innovation and excellence.
Initially, the nose entices you with classic brioche hints and faint lemon scents that suggest a sophisticated depth. You will then enjoy a creamy complexity on the palate that balances zesty acidity with a smooth, lingering mouthfeel. Additionally, this range consistently earns top accolades, including a 90/100 rating from Tim Atkin MW and a Gold Medal at the Michelangelo International Wine Awards. Because the team utilizes only the first pressings (the cuvée), the wine achieves a level of purity that delights the senses. Every sip offers a fine bead and an elegant finish that reflects the meticulous craftsmanship behind the label.
Subsequently, the Allée Bleue Blanc de Blancs 2022 spends 36 months maturing on the lees to develop its signature nutty and toasted character. Therefore, it possesses the necessary weight and structure to pair beautifully with a fresh seafood platter or delicate lime-flavored Thai dishes. You can also serve it as a refined aperitif to elevate any celebration or special milestone with friends and family. Ultimately, this Cap Classique provides a luxurious tasting experience that honors the 300-year-old winemaking tradition of the Franschhoek Valley. Experience the vibrant energy and timeless elegance of Allée Bleue in every sparkling glass.
