Tasting Note

This sparkling wine was made using the oldest method, dating back to the 15th century, Méthode Ancestrale. No added sulphites in the wine and minimal intervention allows for maximum character. Pomegranate, fynbos and the most delicate brioche on the nose, with a mouth filling bubble burst, plenty of ageing potential whilst still giving the utmost enjoyment in its youth.

Product Notes

B Vintners Methode Ancestrale wine is a remarkable South African sparkling wine, characterised by an alluring citrusy tang and piquant sourdough essence. Tasting suggests delectable hints of apple, orange zest and a harmonious undertone of yeastiness. This natural, ancient-method wine emanates from the Stellenbosch region, celebrated for its quality vineyards. It's a low intervention, small-batch wine, with no addition of chemicals or preservatives, retaining the authentic flavour of the grape. This wine delights the palate with its unfiltered, crisp taste and is ideally savoured chilled, perfect for a refreshing summer evening or upscale gathering.

About the Winery

Established in the Stellenbosch region of South Africa, B Vintners winery is a collaboration between cousins Gavin Bruwer and Bruwer Raats. This vibrant enterprise is dedicated to crafting unique, terroir-driven wines that encapsulate the distinctive characteristics of the Cape's complex terroir.

Amongst the undulating vineyards and rugged mountainside, B Vintners takes an innovative and intuitive approach to winemaking. Reflecting the history, climate, and soul of each vineyard, the winery showcases the bounty of the Cape with each bottle produced. From the luscious vineyard resplendent with Grenache Noir to the mature bush vine Chenin Blanc, you can taste the history of the Cape through their wines.

The cellar ranges from classic to contemporary styling, combining Old World practices with New World twists. B Vintners are proud to practice sustainable farming, focusing on low-impact production and agricultural bio-diversity by adjusting to each vine's needs in a natural, minimal intervention manner.

Their wine portfolio boasts notes of exotic fruits and spices as diverse as the Cape’s unique climate making each sensory journey a captivating experience. However, the winery doesn’t just stop at tantalising the taste buds, it also offers a visual feast. This is especially so during the harvest, when sacks of plump grapes are dotted against the dramatic backdrop of the rugged, mountainous landscape.

Along with the fabulous wines, B Vintners is popular for welcoming its visitors with warm South African hospitality. The winery’s tasting room features open fireplaces, expansive vineyard views and the opportunity to immerse oneself into the history of the Cape wines and terroir.

B Vintners is truly a pioneer in crafting wholly authentic Cape wines. They are steeped in tradition while boldly pushing the boundaries of winemaking. It's not always an easy task, but the end product is a testament to their commitment to authenticity and quality. B Vintners is indeed an embodiment of the old adage, ‘wine is bottled poetry,’.
