From Madiba magic to Obama mania - Graham Beck Brut has been the bubbly to beat! It was the celebratory drink of choice both at Nelson Mandela’s inauguration and Barack Obama’s presidential win.

in the vineyard : A selection of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay sourced from Robertson, Stellenbosch and hand selected parcels from the Western Cape.

about the harvest: Both varietals are handpicked; Chardonnay at 18-19.5°B for fruit and elegance. Pinot Noir at 18.5-20°B for complexity and length of flavour.

in the cellar :

CELLAR: Produced in our Méthode Cap Classique cellar in Robertson.

CELLAR TREATMENT: Whole bunch pressing ensures fractional recovery. After settling of juice the two varietals are fermented separately. They are then cross blended along with reserve wine if neccessary, bottled and left for 15 to 18 months yeast contact time before disgorgement.
