Characteristics:
Secondary fermentation in bottle, blend of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay. Attractive delicate salmon pink colour. Delicious whiffs of charming raspberry and strawberry aromas vie with a peppery spice nuance on the nose. The palate is vivid with lively bubbles of bright red berries and a crisp acidity. Providing equilibrium are rich, creamy lees notes and toasted biscuit flavours.
Food pairing:
Dry and seductive as an aperitif, stylish and romantic pink bubbles. Also delicious with seafood or oysters!
About the winery:
L'Ormarins dates back to 1694 when Huguenot Jean Roi planted 4000 vines beneath the jagged peaks of the Groot Drakenstein Mountains. Current owner is international businessman and wine connoisseur Anthonij Rupert. The flagship portfolio carries his name.
