Organic produce has become more in demand each year, and the wine industry is no exception. This non-vintage Brut is made from organic grapes grown on the Avondale farm in Paarl, where Bio-Logic refers to their approach to restore the original balance back into the soil through natural means (they have a flock of ducks to curb the snail problem).
This has led to some interesting names, like the Avondale Jonty’s Ducks, and an eye-opening advertising campaign, but also some superb wines. Made in the Methode Cap Classique style by winemaker Bertus Albertyn, this wine spends 10 months on the lees to ensure good weight on the palate to back up the bright, fresh, citrus flavours.
There are a lot of established names on the sparkling wine market, but this one is certainly a worthy contender.
Brendon’s thoughts:
Brace yourself for another year in the best way - with a glass of bubbly in your hand! From an estate committed to a natural production process, this wine will ensure your year gets off to a lively start.
Jean’s thoughts:
A crispy, clean, natural bubbly. A good way to start the New Year.
Price at Caveau: R 180 per bottle / R 45 per glass
