De Grendel
De Grendel is a Durbanville wine estate where cool-climate vineyards and careful site selection shape a broad range of South African wines. Known for Sauvignon Blanc, Shiraz and red blends, the estate combines coastal influence, varietal clarity and a strong sense of Cape Town wine country.
Description
The De Grendel Brut Rosé has all the trademarks of a conventional and meticulously constructed bubby, with the added allure of being playful and exciting. This complex wine offers layer upon layer of flavour and a weightier palate than the average sparkling wine. A fine and persistent long-lasting mousse precedes hints of oyster shell and fresh lavender on the nose, followed by an exceptionally long aftertaste. The intensity of strawberry coulis and black cherry flavours are well-balanced by firm acidity.
Food Pairing
Bone-dry Méthode Cap Classique is one of the most versatile and food-friendly wines in the world. The dry acidity of the brut helps it pair exceptionally well with fatty foods and is perfectly capable of cutting through rich dishes such as creamy risotto, smoked salmon terrine, duck prosciutto and buttery pastries.
