Buy this wine because as Melissa says With the Rosé I find there has to be more finer flavours, it takes more to make a bubbly that has so much expression but to be enjoyed in a light approach when you do drink bubbly in general. I am enjoying this next stage of Cap Classique development and think it is evolving well , Shiraz from the Bot River area tends to have more feminine qualities for me that make world class red wines with their layered complexity for drinking but now also for Cap Classique!”

It pairs great with smoked salmon, summer pudding and Pavlova
