In 1971, Kaapse Vonkel was the first sparkling wine in South Africa made according to the 'Methode champenoise'. This traditional way of making sparkling wine is now now as ''Methode Cap Classique'' in South Africa. Kaapse Vonkel is made with the premium red and white grapes, and is matured on the lees, in its bottle, for three years, before it's ready for release. (6 x 75 cl)

Simonsig KAAPSE VONKEL Cap Classique Sparkling Brut RSA
Description: The grapes for Kaapse Vonkel are picked early in the harvest to retain the natural acidity and low pH levels. Whole bunch pressing yields the most delicate flavours for the cuvee. The pale straw colour shows that the Kaapse Vonkel 1995 is made from the most gently pressed grapes and very little extraction from the skin occurs. The colour is still fresh and youthful and the nose shows ripe red grape fruit flavours and a yeasty bouquet of freshly baked bread. The mousse is extremely fine and creamy on the palate and it helps to bring out the delicious biscuity flavours. Three years of development has added depth and complexity which will proceed over time. The style is full with firm structure and weight on the palate and a clean Brut finish. www.simonsig.co.za (4 x 1.5 Litres)
