Grapes grow in sustainable vineyards across the cool-climate slopes of Stellenbosch. The winemaking team selects only the finest Chardonnay and Pinot Noir for this blend. After the primary fermentation, the wine undergoes a second fermentation in the bottle. It matures on the lees for 30 months to develop complex autolytic characters. A small dosage ensures a dry, balanced profile. This meticulous process creates a world-class sparkling wine with remarkable finesse.
