By Genevieve Méthode Cap Classique SPARKLING WINE | BUBBLY BABES Super flavourful with a delightful fizz, this little gem is like Champagne on steroids! WHAT WE TASTE Orange blossom, white peaches with a dash of softly whipped cream PERFECT PAIRING Mushroom soufflé, butternut ravioli with brown butter sage, tuna tacos, lime & hazelnut macaroons TEMP CHECK Refrigerate overnight and keep it on ice ABOUT GENEVIEVE MCC Melissa Nelson is a self-taught winemaker who fell in love with the Bot River region and the camaraderie amongst the winemakers in the region (her grapes grow just down the way from Luddite). Her aim was pretty simple – to make more than they could drink. More than a decade later, that simple aim has led to some simply amazing bubbles! OUR FAVE THING ABOUT THIS WINE Made in the same method as traditional Champagne, but a lot less subtle (without sacrificing elegance!), this little lady is a great way to get to know what the hype around bubbles is all about. THE TECHNICAL STUFF Place: Bot River, Overberg, South Africa Grape: Chardonnay Style: Elegant and crisp Ingredients: Grapes, Champagne yeast and a pinch of SO2
