Solea Cuvée Brut MCC

Solea Cuvée Brut MCC

SKU: SOB75

Taste: On the palate, the wine is both lively and refined, echoing the minerality of the nose with a crisp, saline freshness. Notes of citrus zest, green apple, and white peach dance with vibrant acidity, creating a tension that is at once invigorating and polished. The mousse is creamy yet precise, wrapping the flavors in a textural elegance that elevates each sip. The finish is long, radiant, and refreshingly dry, marked by a persistent, fine bead of bubbles that leaves a lingering impression of citrus blossom and sea breeze. It closes with a beautifully balanced structure and a sense of purity that invites another sip.

Smell: The nose is uplifting and evocative, a harmonious blend of sun and earth. A cool, mineral core immediately emerges, reminiscent of oyster shell and wet stone, giving the wine a sense of coastal purity. Layered upon this are aromatic nuances of elderflower, fresh apple blossom, and a touch of candied orange peel. Subtle undertones of brioche and crushed herbs add depth, hinting at time on the lees and thoughtful winemaking.

Description: Solea is a Cap Classique from South Africa, made from the noble grape varieties Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. This sparkling wine is bottle-fermented and matured on the lees for ca 15 months in an underground cellar, in the heart of the Cape of Good Hope.

Color: brilliant pale gold hue with subtle hints of green, reflecting its youthful vibrancy and finesse. A steady stream of fine, delicate bubbles rises gracefully, forming a persistent mousse — a visual promise of elegance and precision.
