A unique first for South Africa in that the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay were pressed together in the same press. Fractional recovery from the whole bunches ensured that only the best quality juice went into fermentation.

The Pinot Noir grapes for this Cap Classique were selected from four very unique vineyards in Elgin, Durbanville, Stellenbosch and Robertson for the diversity, complexity and depth of flavors we need for our vintage rosé. The Chardonnay grapes originates from our estate in Robertson, where the vines grow in limestone-rich soils. All grapes were hand-picked in the early mornings and transported to our cellar, where the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay were gently whole bunch pressed together.

After fermentation the wine was lightly fined and bottled for the secondary fermentation, after which the wine underwent four years of lees contact time before disgorging.
