Wine from Rock – Made from Tempranillo and Syrah grapes grown in pure limestone soils, that are so hard and rocky that the vine struggles to grow and thus yields a small, concentrated crop. Baleia respect the fruit by making use of amphorae and large wooden foudres in the cellar, which highlights the unique minerality and makes for a tantalizing wine bursting with character.

L`Ormarins MCC Brut, Anthonij Rupert Wyne
£1995Add to BasketL’Ormarins Brut Classique MCC is a sparkling wine that hails from the Western Cape of South Africa. It boasts a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes, which are harvested by hand and fermented separately before being blended and bottled. The resulting wine is a delicate balance of fruitiness, minerality, and acidity, with hints of pear, green apple, and citrus. It’s a perfect pairing for seafood, white meat, and salads, and a great choice for celebratory toasts or special occasions. This MCC is a testament to the quality of South African sparkling wine, making it a must-try for any wine lover.
In the glass, it has a fine bead and string of pearl bubbles. Aromas of tarte tatin apple and cinnamon with a light pear drop and biscuit nuance. Bright vivacious and crisply zesty in the mouth. Tangy lime and green apple crunch with a richer, deeper, biscuit and sourdough undertone. The zingy citrus and creamy lees flavours are well balanced with acidity and fruit in complete harmony. It is poised and elegant with a lingering aftertaste.
