About this sparkling wine

Laborie Méthode Cap Classique Blanc de Blancs is a complex and indulgent sparkling wine from South Africa's Western Cape, crafted from 100% Chardonnay. This wine shows clarity of fruit on the nose with hints of lime accompanied by aromas of toasted bread and hazelnut. The palate is creamy, round and textured with an explosive acidity and lasting, elegant finish. Why You'll Love It This is premium Blanc de Blancs crafted with exceptional care. Made from hand-harvested Chardonnay using only the best cuvée juice, the wine undergoes secondary fermentation in the bottle followed by an impressive 48 months of lees ageing—four years of patient maturation that creates extraordinary complexity, creaminess, and depth. The result is a sophisticated sparkling wine that rivals the finest Champagnes at outstanding value. Meet the Producer Laborie is a historic Western Cape winery dedicated to producing premium wines that reflect the unique terroir of South Africa. Their commitment to traditional method sparkling wines ensures exceptional quality and character in every bottle. Production The grapes were hand-harvested into bins in the cool of the morning, then whole-bunch pressed with only the best cuvée juice used for the final blend. A selected yeast strain was used for primary fermentation, with no malolactic fermentation permitted to ensure freshness. The wine was blended, bottled and underwent secondary fermentation in the bottle, followed by approximately 48 months of lees ageing before disgorgement. Tasting Notes Complex and indulgent with clarity of fruit on the nose. Hints of lime are accompanied by aromas of toasted bread and hazelnut. The palate is creamy, round and textured with explosive acidity and a lasting, elegant finish.
