Riebeek Cellars Pieter Cruythoff Brut NV

This bubbly is extra dry but maintains a complex, fruity nose of tropical fruit and biscuit flavours. Crisp acid ensures a fresh, clean and very drinkable sparkling wine.

Enjoy well-chilled to celebrate any occasion and pair perfectly with lighter meals like pasta, salmon and salads.
