Plaisir Wine Estate6x Brut Rosé MCC

About

The beautiful Plaisir de Merle Wine Estate is situated at the foot of the Simonsberg Mountain between Paarl and Franschhoek. The wines produced here are inspired by the harmony of a rich history, the fertile soil, and lush vineyards. Our quest in making exceptional wines would have found favour with Huguenot founder, Charles Marais.

Product Features

• This elegant and distinctive Cap Classique is made in the classic French tradition from two noble varietals, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. 
• It is a blend of 56% Chardonnay which gives a clean flintiness and green apple flavours, and 44% Pinot Noir which imparts distinctive body, flavour and maturity. 
• The wine was left on the lees for approximately 24-36 months before the sediment was removed in the traditional process of remuage and disgorgement.
• This timeless Cap Classique with elegance and complexity is ready to drink now but will develop with age.  
• The fine persistent mousse displays aromas of pear, Granny Smith apples, citrus and light yeasty notes with a hint of a red berry character. 
• The Chardonnay imparts citrus, stone fruit and tropical nuances whilst the Pinot Noir provides notes of sweet glazed red cherries. 
• It has a long, lingering, crisp, fresh finish. 
• Pairs great with a Salmon confit or grilled lobster tail with lemon and tarragon butter sauce.
