A delicate layer of mousse created by continuous strings of fine bubbles releasing a bouquet of apricot, green pear and citrus. Refreshingly crisp and zesty bubbles with a dry finish.

A Chardonnay based wine with grapes are whole bunched pressed and tank fermented with selected yeast strain. The tirage is prepared (sugar, yeast and riddling agents) and the wine is bottled under crown cap for second fermentation. Further sur lie maturation takes place in bottle over the next 48 - 52 months before riddling and disgorging of the Cap Classique. The Blanc de Blanc Cap Classique is made in a Brut style of residual sugar ranging from 3 -7g/l max.
