in the vineyard : Meticulous care has gone into making J.C. Le Roux Le Domaine - care which begins in the vineyard.

The grapes are sourced from selected vineyards in the Western Cape planted at altitudes ranging from 50 to 300 metres above sea level. The Sauvignon blanc and White Muscadel grapes are selected from different established vineyard sites to impart complexity to the wine.

The White Muscadel and Sauvignon Blanc vineyards enjoyed similar climatic conditions. The clones WM 183A were propagated onto the rootstock Richter 99 and 110.

about the harvest: This sparkling wine is made predominantly of Sauvignon Blanc grapes (80%) blended with White Muscadel (20%). The grapes are harvested by hand at 21,5° - 22,5° Balling and placed in small baskets to prevent bruising.
