Bestowed with all the privileges of the cool Walker Bay, Pinot Noir steals the spotlight in this blend. Nudged by the lagoon, with vistas of the Atlantic Ocean, the vineyards enjoy cool daytime temperatures that drop even further at night. A beneficial diurnal range aids in even ripening and complexity while maritime winds encourage healthy vines with minimal intervention.

Grapes were hand harvested in the crisp morning and carefully hand sorted. Whole bunch fermented and pressed; only free run juice was used to ensure the best quality. A partial malolactic fermentation (25%) was done to soften the acidity but to still preserve freshness and genteel aromas. After blending and bottling, a secondary fermentation was induced to initiate that fine bubbles Méthode Cap Classique is celebrated for.
