CHARDONNAY 2018 BRUT MCC

VINTAGE 2018

VARIETAL Chardonnay 100%

ORIGIN Western Cape

IRRIGATION Drip

SOIL Decomposed granite

HARVEST DATE First half of February at 19 Balling

VINIFICATION After cooling the grapes down overnight the grapes were pressed as whole bunches. Only the first 510 litres/ton (Cuvee) were used. After overnight settling the juice was racked, inoculated, and fermented at 14C for 2 weeks. The wine was inoculated and bottled for the second fermentation 2 months later and matured on the lees for a further 22 months before being “degorged” in September 2020

TASTING NOTES This delicate MCC has a string of fine bubbles rising in the glass, enhancing the pale yellowish colour. On the nose you will be met by an explosion of pears, apples and green figs. The palate is dominated by the tinkling bubbles on the tongue and a very creamy finish.

ANALYSIS Alc; 12% - pH; 3.39 – TA 6.2 g/l – RS 7g/l – Pressure 6 bar
