From Swartland, South Africa, Chakalaka is deep ruby red in colour. There are aromas of clove and subtle white pepper followed by plum with elegant hints of spice. On the palate it is medium bodied with red fruit and integrated oak. The excellent balance of acidity and ripe tannins will allow this wine to age well.
This signature Brut is made by a head winemaker who's been named Sparkling Winemaker of the Year eight times at the International Wine Challenge. It has notes of toasted brioche, almond, yellow plum, nectarine and ginger.
