Simonsig, Western Cape (South Africa) 2019

By Rich Cook

 This is quite elegant for a Brut Rosé in this price category, with subtle strawberry and lemon creme, a fine mousse, a creamy texture and crisp finish that keeps a floral note in play and lets a yeasty note surface.  This delicious sparkler from a Cap Classique pioneer is absolutely worth seeking out.  Contains 75% Pinot Noir, 23% Pinotage and 2% Pinot Meunier.
