MCC

This MCC pairs well with shellfish, light appetizers, or as an aperitif, making it versatile for various occasions​.

The PAS DE NOM NV MCC is a Methode Cap Classique made from 100% Chardonnay grapes that grow on the cool, sandstone mid-slopes of Franschoek.

The wine spent 18 months on the lees during and after second fermentation before it was disgorged.

Grapes are picked in January's early morning hours between 18.5- and 19.5 degrees Balling before being sent to the cold room overnight. The following morning the small lug boxes are tipped into a pneumatic press, where the grapes are gently seperated from their skins and seeds. The Chardonnay juice is sent to a cooled tank, where it settles overnight before being racked into its fermentation vessel - stainless steel. Fermentation takes place slowly at a very low temperature and the fermentation lees is stirred often - during and after fermentation throughout aging on the gross lees.

The PAS DE NOM CREATIVE BATCH is an atypical character that was born during unconventional times. It is an all-encompassing package containing the works of many growers from all corners of our industry. Hence the closure reading “#SAVESAWINE”, a campaign created in support and aid of the livelihoods dependent on our South African wine industry.
