Sprankel Cap Classique - Single

Babylonstoren Sprankel is the estates flagship M*thode Cap Classique (MCC), crafted in the traditional Champagne method from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Produced with the same fastidious attention to farming and cellar work that defines all Babylonstoren wines, Sprankel is a refined, elegant South African sparkling wine that combines precision, texture and celebratory finesse.

It is a benchmark MCC that comfortably stands alongside the worlds finest traditional-method sparkling wines. Tasting Notes Colour: Brilliant pale gold with a fine, persistent bead of mousse. Nose: Elegant and expressive with aromas of green apple, lemon zest, white peach and fresh brioche. Subtle notes of toasted almond, chalk and honeyed citrus develop with time in the glass.

Palate: Pure and finely structured. Crisp citrus and orchard fruit are layered with creamy lees-derived texture, gentle pastry notes and a vibrant acidity that gives the wine lift and tension. The mousse is fine and silky, enhancing the wines elegance. Finish: Long, clean and refreshing with lingering citrus oil, delicate nuttiness and a dry, mineral-driven close.
