Brut MCC

Serve chilled and enjoy paired with fresh fruit, smoked trout or sushi.

Grapes all picked by hand in the cool early morning. The Chardonnay component came from 2 blocks of vineyard, in different regions, one being Anura Vineyards, Simonsberg-Paarl and the other from the Robertson district. (The Pinot Noir portion all came from Anura).

15% of the total blend was fermented in 2nd and 3rd fill French oak barrels, the rest in stainless tanks. Bottled shortly after primary fermentation. After the second fermentation this wine was kept on the lees for 4 years or more before disgorgement.

Bunches are lightly pressed whole; only using the cuvee (500L/ton). The juice is handled carefully with minimum exposure to oxygen to preserve the delicate flavours of the juice, with no sulphur added.

Anura Vineyards is owned and run by Tymen, Jenny and Lance Bouma. Positioned on the foothills on the Simonsberg Mountains, Anura boasts a wide variety of soils, slopes and microclimates. This allows us to grow a wide selection of cultivars, some uncommon in South Africa, and also to match each cultivar with its ideal soil and microclimate. With each passing harvest we learn more about our soils and vineyards, and refine our vineyard and cellar practices in order to create the finest wines for our unique terroir. Our passion is red wine, and with plantings of Mourvédre, Petit Verdot, Grenache, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese and Malbec, among more classic, locally grown varietals, we aim to produce handcrafted wines for individuals who are looking for something unique and distinctive.
