Il Geco Cap Classique 2017

R483.00

Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes were picked by hand and co-pressed. Fermentation and Malo-Lactic conversion took place in a temperature-controlled stainless steel tank. The base wine was kept on fine lees for 10 months before bottling for the second fermentation on 27-11-2017. The wine was disgorged on 03-03-2022 after a lengthy period on the lees.

Elegant and Finely Poised. Clean and fresh flavours of Lemon, bruised GrannySmith Apple, Strawberries, and Citrus Blossom. The palate is lean, mineral, and flinty with a distinctive Oyster-shell savoury quality. A bright acidity cuts through a creamy subtle brioche note on the breadth of the palate, lengthening the exhilaration of this fine-beaded euphoria.
