Lanzerac estate is one of the icons of the Stellenbosch winelands, a historical and cultural landmark, reflected in the quality of its wines.
An elegant traditional method (Methode Cap Classique) sparkling wine in the Champagne style, from 100% Chardonnay. A creamy biscuity contribution from the yeast balances with the fresh citrus and apple flavours, with delicate tiny bubbles giving a lively sensation. Grapes from different blocks were whole-bunch pressed to keep delicacy, and fermented separately based on block for 8 months before blending into base wine. Second fermentation in bottles for 2 weeks, followed by 12 months of maturation on the lees before disgorgement, final dosage and corking. Ideal with smoked salmon or caviar, highly recommended with fruit and parmesan cheese salad, freshly-baked bread and olive dip.
