Leeches? Cholera?
 


On the eighth day of Christmas...
10 December 2012  by wine.co.za
Sounding like a rather infectious disease, Lees and Colerette are actually important to bubbly.
Steyn Fullard from Weltevrede Wine Estate and Pieter Ferreira from Graham Beck Wines divulge the answers to what is Lees and Colerette.

The wine.co.za December Spotlight has exploded in a flurry of bubbles and festive cheer.

We wanted to make this month count and so we gathered four of South Africa’s best Methode Cap Classique (MCC) makers as well as our resident bubbly maniac, Zwai Gumede, in a hot tub for corker of a day.
Complete with bubbles, bubbly and sparkling personalities all round, we’ve got answers to all your bubbling questions as well as an insight into what these MCC makers will be doing over Christmas.
