Hover on image to enlarge
Description
A notable contribution to South African Cap Classiques, the Delaire Sunrise Brut CC was a deviation from the traditional South African CC grape varietals. This ground-breaking CC is the first South African crémant blend driven by Chenin Blanc in the style of the Loire Valley. Resplendent in its own right, the Sunrise Brut catches the light through a fine, integrated mousse and pale yellow colour. Zesty in nature, the wine is an elegant blend of Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay, and Cabernet Franc. Aromas of fresh gooseberry on the nose are supported by citrus notes of lime and grapefruit. Silky and smooth on the palate at first, the wine unsheathes a flinty minerality with subtle tannins, huge length, subtle hints of vanilla and a lingering finish. The wine is a remarkable addition to the Delaire Graff wine portfolio and MCC landscape of South Africa, and pays homage to the Sunrise diamond through an intricate label embossed with the many layered facets of the diamond itself.
