Capriole MCC Blanc de Blanc

Perfect as an aperitif or accompaniment to light dishes

Cavalli Wine Estate is located on the outskirts of Stellenbosch, South Africa in an area known as the Helderberg also known as the Golden Triangle due to the exceptional quality of wines that are produced in this region. With 27ha of vineyards planted in rich koffieklip soils and cooled by late afternoon breezes from False Bay our vineyards benefit tremendously by the unique terroir in which the vines are planted. The utmost care is taken to ensure that the vineyards are meticulously farmed for the production of only the most premium quality fruit. Cavalli Wine Estate is home to some of the best Chenin blanc and Cabernet sauvignon in the region, both of which have been at the helm of producing award winning wines. We also focus on Chardonnay, Viognier, Verdelho, Malbec, Petit Verdot and Shiraz.

After secondary ferment, the wine was aged on the lees for 36 months before the first batch was disgorged. The wine was then aged a further 2 months in bottle before release.

The Chardonnay grapes for the MCC were hand-picked and sorted in the early morning at Cavalli. After whole bunch pressing only 50% of the juice from the grapes, the juice was fermented in stainless steel to produce a crisp, fresh fruit profile.
