Brut; vibrant with chenin blanc’s natural acidity. Fresh, clean, fruity through the finish. Vigorous and surprisingly persistent bubbles. This was made in the lowest-end of the three main ways for sparkling. Still wine is cold fermented in stainless steel to preserve fruit and crispness, then moved to a pressure tank and carbon dioxide added. This is different from the traditional method where secondary fermentation occurs in the bottle, and is different from charmat/tank method most often associated with Prosecco where the second fermentation occurs in a stainless steel tank; 12% ABV.
In the third method, which appears to have been used here, CO2 is added, same way soda pop gets it fizz. That also is the way lower end, commodity sparkling is made. That said, this is not painful plonk sparkling. It is light and pleasant in the mouth with brisk acidity and high carbonation. MAN Vintners know how to grow great chenin blanc. Chenin blanc—also known as “steen” in South Africa—is the principal white grape of South Africa.
