The House of J.C. Le Roux, South Africa’s first cellar dedicated entirely to the art of making sparkling wine, offers a sophisticated choice for discerning palates with its graceful flagship, Scintilla 2003.
Only produced in exceptional vintages, this signature Method Cap Classique is luxuriously smooth and well-balanced with an elegant, dry palate and an explosion of scintillating bubbles that will uplift any occasion.
J.C. Le Roux Scintilla 2003 is the ideal companion for those who know how to live Le Good Life. A classic blend of Chardonnay (75%) and Pinot noir (25%), the wine spent an unbelievable seven years on the lees, resulting in rich layers of complexity and flavours with a superior, smooth character.
“This outstanding signature J.C. Le Roux Cap Classique has a brilliant golden colour, displaying a rich fruitiness on the nose with integrated baked bread flavours, and will benefit from additional bottle maturation,” says cellarmaster Elunda Basson, who recommends enjoying this stylish wine with juicy braised Karoo lamb shank or tantalising salmon bruschetta.
Looking more sophisticated than ever with an elegant new look, J.C. Le Roux Scintilla 2003 is available at boutique wine shops and restaurants, selling for R150 at the cellar door.
