Pongrácz Desiderius Brut 2015 was hand-crafted in a uniquely styled fluted bottle that epitomises elegance, quality and nobility. This magnificent Cap Classique encapsulates grace and exceptional character. It is alluring with rich complexity and a slight green tint that teems with light, lively bubbles on the palate. Nuances of fresh fruit, almonds, and freshly baked bread delight the senses.
This charismatic signature Cap Classique is a tribute to Desiderius Pongrácz, a nobleman and refugee from the Hungarian uprising, whose sheer genius and vision revitalised viticulture at the Cape. He had the gift of the "third eye" – the ability of seeing the new in the familiar, finding the unexpected in the traditional. Witty and brilliant, his theories were fresh and provocative – not only on viticulture, but also on music and history. He was stirred by the symphonies of Beethoven and impressed by the loyal intelligence of his dachshunds. We pay homage to this scholar and wine lover with this celebrated Cap Classique that bears his name, signature, and family crest. Composed entirely of the noble grape varieties, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, this elegant Cap Classique is crafted in the classic French tradition.
