Medium golden yellow with tight little bubbles. Fresh nose with crisp green apples, brioche and some crushed gravel. Well balanced with medium acidity (5.5/10) and medium bodied. Mousse mouthfeel with notes of apples, lemon creme and a touch of yeast. Long finish with some minerality. Drink till 2022.
This bottling is John Loubser's take on the traditional 'Blanc de Blancs' and made up of 100% Chardonnay from Robertson within the Breede River Valley. The Chardonnay is fermented in a mix of old French oak barrels and stainless steel. This wine goes through secondary fermentation within the bottle and spends a minimum of 24 months on the lees before bottling. Only 11,400 bottles produced.

Good complement to Thai curry. Green apple, pear, grapefruit, rosemary and yeast flavors.

Delicious Blanc de Blanc. . Not usually a fan of SA bubbles but this was elegant with green apples,citrus and white flowers, soft yeasty biscuity brioche, fine lingering mousse ... All the reasons I love "champagne".
