De Grendel

Description
The De Grendel Cap Classique Brut 2023 dazzles with pale gold hues and a fine, persistent mousse. Aromas of citrus zest, green apple and delicate florals are layered with notes of toasted brioche and almond. On the palate it shows vibrant, crisp lemon and white peach, complemented by a creamy texture and refined mousse. A bright acidity lends freshness and structure, balancing fruit purity with autolytic richness. The finish is long and clean, leaving elegant citrus and biscuit nuances, making for a poised and expressive Cap Classique.
Food Pairing
This Cap Classique Brut pairs beautifully with fresh oysters, citrus-cured salmon or delicate sushi. It also complements creamy goat cheese and buttery pastries, while tempura prawns or a smoked trout mousse offer refined matches.
