The Taste Case: Top Cap Classiques

Cape Wine Master Allan Mullins raises a glass to South African sparkling wine with a hand-picked case of six classy Cap Classiques – wines that are made according to the traditional Champagne method.

  • Woolworths Villiera Brut MCC Non-Vintage

    Jeff Grier of Villiera has produced this great-value sparkling wine for Woolworths for more than 30 years. Along with the classic Champagne-method grapes of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, Jeff uses up to 20% Pinotage, which gives the wine an extra berry fruitiness.

  • Le Lude Reserve Rosé Non-Vintage

    This blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir opens with raspberry, red cherry and wild plum, followed by a rich palate with layers of berry fruit and hints of grapefruit. It's a classic sparkling wine that will suit any celebration.

  • Woolworths Signature Cap Classique Vintage Brut, Villiera 2013

    Villiera in Stellenbosch is renowned for its pioneering approach to making wine, and this award-winning Cap Classique is no exception. A second fermentation of six years on the lees has resulted in a creamy, yeasty nose, and a full-bodied, complex palate with brioche, dark fruit and hints of honey and chocolate.

  • Woolworths Simonsig Pinot Noir No Sulphur Added MCC 2018

    Wine lovers might expect a Cap Classique made entirely from a red grape to be rich and full-bodied, but gentle handling of carefully chosen Stellenbosch Pinot Noir has resulted in this delicate Cap Classique. A pale silver-pink colour leads to strawberry, raspberry and dried stone fruit along with light biscuit on the nose. It's a good partner for sushi and a great addition to your picnic basket.

  • Pieter Ferreira Brut Cap Classique 2015

    Pieter "Bubbles" Ferreira has been a Cap Classique icon for 30 years and has made Graham Beck an internationally admired brand. Has he found his perfect bubble yet? He says it still eludes him, but he has made great progress with this cracker of a wine, the first produced under his own name.

  • Graham Beck Bliss Nectar MCC Non-Vintage

    This blissful bubbly will delight those with a sweeter tooth and pleasantly surprise those who prefer their Cap Classique on the dry side. Look forward to fresh summer berries, a light touch of honey, spiced peach and delightful floral tones on the nose and palate. A perfect match with nougat, créme caramel and fruity desserts.
