Saronsberg Cap Classique Brut 2022
Cap Classique
Description
Nestled at the foot of the Saronsberg mountain in the historic Tulbagh Valley, Saronsberg Cellar draws on unique soils of shale and clay loam and a climate shaped by cool mountain breezes to craft wines of balance and finesse. The Cap Classique Brut 2022 embodies this terroir-driven approach: hand-harvested Chardonnay undergoes traditional bottle fermentation and extended lees ageing (often 24 + months) to build fine, persistent bubbles and delicate complexity. The result reflects both place and method - lively acidity, subtle texture and refined flavours that speak to the region’s cool-climate identity and Saronsberg’s careful winemaking.
Colour: Pale straw with a slight green edge and a prominent, persistent mousse - bright and inviting in the glass.
Nose: Delicate aromas of toasted biscuit, creamy lees and fresh apple offer an elegant, nuanced bouquet.
Palate: Crisp and refined, the palate delivers green apple and citrus flavours with a hint of brioche complexity from lees contact. The texture feels lively yet polished.
Finish: Long, dry and elegant, with lingering freshness and subtle savoury notes that draw the experience to a satisfying close.
