Pinot Noir 67% | Chardonnay 33%
Hemel-En-Aarde Ridge
Sourced from high-altitude vineyards in the Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge, the grapes were gently pressed and fermented before spending four years on the lees to develop its complex character.
Named the Makeba Cap Classique Brut, this wine is inspired by the spirit of “Mama Africa,” embodying brightness and elegance.The bottle’s unique label art is inspired by the African dot-painting style, Kika Ọnà.
“Grapes from Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge. 67% Pinot Noir, 38% Chardonnay. Four years on the lees. Strawberry, peach and a hint of yeasty complexity on the nose. The palate is full and round with fine, creamy mousse – a residual sugar of 7.2g/l provides guilty pleasure.”
