About
There are a great many things that need to align to compose a single bottle of Pongrácz. Noble varietals, knowledge and expertise are just a few of the pieces of an ensemble that, once in play, forms the symphony that is one of South Africa’s finest Méthode Cap Classiques. But Pongrácz is not just about the art of winemaking. It’s about the character, charisma and skill of the man who inspired a crescendo that has grown into the country’s most adored Cap Classiques.
Product Features
- Award: Veritas Vertex Best in Show.
- After alcoholic and malolactic fermentation the wine was racked to clean stainless steel tanks and matured on the fine lees for four months.
- A small portion of the blend was barrel fermented to enhance the richness and flavour complexity of the final blend.
- The wine was then bottled for slow secondary fermentation, essential for a quality Cap Classique.
- The wine was matured for a minimum of 36 months on the lees before the sediment was removed by the traditional methods of “remuage” and “degorgement”.
- With its elegant and lithe style, Blanc de Blancs will develop from being quite restrained when young to having a brioche richness that overlays an intense expression of fruitiness.
- The citrus aromas are complemented by alluring creaminess, creating a linear and focused mineral-driven finish.
- Enjoy with double-baked goats cheese soufflés, fresh oysters or sustainable white fish.
