Groote Post The Old Mans Sparkle - 1st Release Methode Cap Classique Brut

The Old Man's Sparkle Brut is Groote Post's maiden Method Cap Classique wine. The wine pays tribute to Peter Pentz, the patriarch of the Pentz Family, who's greatest wish is that his bubbly will add a sparkle to your life. It explodes with tiny bubbles, biscuit flavours and a full yeasty texture fills the palate.
