Pongrácz6x Nectar Rosé Light

About

There are a great many things that need to align to compose a single bottle of Pongrácz. Noble varietals, knowledge and expertise are just a few of the pieces of an ensemble that, once in play, forms the symphony that is one of South Africa’s finest Méthode Cap Classiques. But Pongrácz is not just about the art of winemaking. It’s about the character, charisma and skill of the man who inspired a crescendo that has grown into the country’s most adored Cap Classiques. 

Product Features

• Pongrácz Nectar Rosé light is crafted predominantly of Pinot noir for its distinctive body and taste complemented by Chardonnay that imparts a clean flintiness. 
• After whole bunch pressing with minimal skin contact, the clear grape juice is cold fermented in stainless steel tanks. 
• After the first fermentation, the wine is prepared for secondary fermentation in the bottle. 
• The wine is left on the lees for 12 months before the sediment is removed in the traditional process of "remuage" and "dégorgement". 
• The bottles are then laid down in a cool cellar for a further 2-4 months. 
• Salmon pink in hue, ripe berry aromas balanced with a refreshing acidity and a creamy mousse.
• Great complexity on the palate with lower alcohol and enhanced sweetness, strawberry and red berries, layered with nuances of spicy aromas and yeasty undertones.
