Our crème de la crème, an elegant expression of distinctive excellence. Delicate light gold hue with lime green highlights and fine persistent bubbles. Lime blossom aromas with fresh citrus, green apple vibrance and richer notes of toasted bread and brioche from long maturation. Lively bubbles carry flavours of vivacious – and typical – citrus zest set against a creamy backdrop of minerality, a faint sheen of wood, roasted nuts and broad, mature notes of bread and toast.

The De Grendel Cap Classique is a classic blend of 81% Chardonnay and 19% Pinot Noir. Grape bunches were whole-bunch pressed. After settling and racking, the juice was inoculated and fermented in stainless steel tanks where it underwent malolactic fermentation. The base wine was filtered and bottled with ‘Liqueur de Tirage’, a yeast and sugar mixture which facilitates secondary fermentation in the bottle creating natural carbonation.

During 2021, a late winter and spring lead to a late harvest season in 2022 with 3 small compact heat waves in January. Above average crop, quality and quantity wise. The well-established Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vineyards are trellised using the VSP system and are located on the slopes of the Tygerberg at approximately 7 kilometres from, and in sight of, the Atlantic Ocean. The 2022 vintage delivered yields varying from 8 to 10 tons per hectare.

This Méthode Cap Classique is the quintessential drink for all occasions and is the most versatile wine for food pairings. This dry Brut can be served with eggs royale for breakfast, a traditional Cape Malay bobotie, fresh seafood, or with your favourite dessert. Not to mention the obvious match with fresh oysters, pâtés, or simply on its own with the people you love.
