Bruwer Vintners Méthode Ancestrale is a naturally cloudy, ancestral-method sparkling wine. The producers hand-harvest the grapes from low-yielding, dry-farmed vineyards. This wine comes from the Robertson region of South Africa. The ancestral method is the oldest way to make sparkling wine. Winemaker David B. Bruwer stops the fermentation early. He bottles the wine while it is still actively fermenting. This traps the natural carbon dioxide inside the bottle. The result is a deliciously rustic and unique Pét-Nat. It showcases pure fruit and zesty freshness.
- Top Praise: Critics highlight its purity and refreshing, zesty nature.
- Style Note: Drinkers appreciate its naturally cloudy appearance and low alcohol content.
The wine shows a pale straw-yellow colour and fine, natural bubbles. It has a cloudy appearance from the suspended yeast. The nose reveals notes of green apple, wet stone, and fresh dough. The palate is light, zesty, and highly refreshing. Bruwer Vintners Méthode Ancestrale delivers an enjoyable mix of yeasty savouriness and crisp citrus. Serve it well-chilled, but gently invert the bottle before opening.
