You will like to know that…
Not far from Cape Town, in South Africa's Breede River Valley, lies the Graham Beck Estate. The company's founder, Graham Beck, bought Madeba in 1983. This area, near the town of Robertson, is a unique area with rich limestone soil and the perfect climate to create excellent grapes for sparkling wines.
Graham Beck Brut Rosé is a gem of a sparkling wine which comes to us all the way from the Western Cape of South Africa. Made from a careful selection of handpicked Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes grown in the Graham Beck vineyards. The two varieties are pressed and fermented separately. They are blended together before undergoing the second fermentation in the bottle. The Chardonnay adds fruitiness and elegance to the mix while the Pinot Noir offers long-lasting flavour and complexity, as well as the beautiful silver-pink hue.
This sparkling wine is the perfect wine to accompany any occasion, season, or setting. The beautiful blush of this rosé wine in the glass with its pleasantly persistent fizz is sure to charm anyone who partakes. The tiny bubbles are exhilarating and lively while the sweet berry tones of the Graham Beck Brut Rosé make it extra appealing. This elegant bubbly has all the flavour and quality of champagne at a reasonable price.
