Product information "Simonsig Kaapse Vonkel Brut 2017"
The Simonsig Kaapse Vonkel Brut presents itself delicately straw-coloured and clear in the glass and exudes hissing, crackling aromas of Granny Smith apples and white-fleshed fruit. The fresh symphony of dynamically vibrant, yet incredibly elegant perlage promises seductive pleasure! The orchard of fine citrus fruit unfolding on the palate, changing to crisp apples and ending in pear flavours, has a fine balance between fruit and acidity, creating true finesse and elegance. Kaapse Vonkel bewitches with an unforgettable finish that captures the moment and transforms it into a true feast for the senses. It offers the perfect aperitif that brings brilliance and glamour to any celebration.

The grapes for the Kaapse Vonkel Brut were picked by hand and pressed with great care all over the bunch. The juice rested for two days before fermenting in stainless steel tanks at a constant temperature of 15-17°C with the addition of specially selected yeast cultures to achieve optimum fruit and freshness. In order to transfer complexity into the wine, a considerable part of the Chardonnays was fermented in older French oak barrels. No malolactic fermentation was carried out to preserve the freshness of the wine.
