Methode Cap Classic 2008

The wine has a lovely acidic backbone which gives it a long smooth finish underlined with more fuller biscuity flavours from the lees contact and malolactic fermentation.

The wine can be used as an apperitife or will go great with oysters, any grilled fish dish or even a parma ham salad.
