Alexander Vineyards Brut NV
Cap Classique
Description
Alexander Vineyards sits where cool ocean breezes meet ancient, decomposed granite soils on the Cape Peninsula and adjacent Stellenbosch slopes, making it one of the most distinctive terroirs in South Africa. Its Brut NV Cap Classique is a sparkling expression rooted in this sense of place, reflecting cool-climate precision and naturally high acidity that favour brightness and textural finesse. Crafted using traditional bottle fermentation and extended lees ageing - typically a minimum of 16 months - this Brut shows the estate’s commitment to classic sombre à liqueur-style method and subtle complexity without unnecessary intervention.
Colour:
Pale straw with steady, fine bead and youthful sparkle.
Nose:
Lifted aromatics of green apple and citrus peel are interwoven with delicate brioche and biscuit hints from extended lees contact.
Palate:
The palate combines vibrant citrus zest and crisp lemon note with a supple mousse and mineral lift. A touch of subtle creaminess complements the fruit, while focused acidity keeps it bright and poised.
Finish:
Clean and refreshing, finishing with lingering citrus and light toast character that invites another sip.

Alexander Vineyards Brut NV
- Food Pairing : Alexander Vineyards Brut NV thrives with foods that match or contrast its crisp acidity and fine mousse. Its citrus and brioche character pairs beautifully with chilled oysters or shellfish - the wine’s freshness cuts through brine while complementing sweetness. For richer dishes, lemon-herb roast chicken or creamy seafood pasta finds balance in the wine’s zesty profile and delicate texture. Even lighter Asian-inspired starters like sushi or ceviche echo its lively fruit and give a celebratory feel without overpowering the food.
