‘Concentrated yet weightless, this long lees-aged Cap Classique is a study in complexity. On entry strikingly fresh aromas of spring meadow, hay and a lift of bergamot coalesces into darker tones of ginger, honeyed tea and roasted nuts. Evolving on the palate is a duality of fresh and dried fruit, apples, pears and pineapple, with an undertow of toasty hazelnuts, marzipan and truffe. The rapier-like acidity refreshes the palate, while the mousse is pillowy and soft. The vibrant acidity and savoury character begs to be paired with food. The fnish is long, layered, and resoundingly fresh. Drink soon; the interplay between maturity and freshness is best enjoyed soon after disgorgement.’ – Winemaker
