Notes - An elegant and distinctive Méthode Cap Classique, Pongrácz is inspired by a nobleman and refugee from the Hungarian uprising, Desiderius Pongrácz, whose sheer genius and vision revitalised viticulture in the Cape. Composed in the classic French tradition of two noble varieties, Pinot noir and Chardonnay, this magnificent Cap Classique evokes and air of style and sophistication. Pongrácz is made of 40% Chardonnay that imparts a clean flintiness, and 60% Pinot noir for its distinctive body and taste. This is a timeless Cap Classique with great elegance and complexity. Delicate yeasty tones, layered with toast and ripe fruit are enlivened by a firm mousse and persistent bead that make it particularly attractive. It imparts a wonderful foamy mouthful of black fruit flavours with a long lingering aftertaste. It is perfect for any occasion and is superb with chicken, seafood and oysters.
