Cape Winemakers Guild

Graham Beck Non Plus Ultra Cap Classique 2008

Both the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes were whole bunch pressed and only the cuvee fraction used. A small portion of the Chardonnay was fermented in Piece Champenoise barrels to promote the creamy texture and complexity. Pinot Noir is included for palate weight and length of flavour. The wine was matured for 50 months on the lees prior to disgorgement. Tasting Notes: Gentle mineral notes with fresh lime and ripe citrus on the nose. Rich raspberry notes burst on the palate with a creamy and gentle mousse, ensuring richness and finesse.
