Specifications

Description

The Cuvee Bell Rose was produced in the traditional French method of bottle fermentation, known in South Africa as Cap Classique. A period on the skins allowed for the Pinot Noir juice to extract less color, resulting in a beautiful salmon pink color. The wine was matured on the lees in bottle for 12 months. Expect a full nose of strawberries and cream, followed by fresh acidity and red fruit on the palate.

In the cellar

A tribute to Pinot Noir, the light rose hue of the Belle Rose Cap Classique is welcoming and even romantic. The sweetheart of this range with every sip.

Winemaker: Achim von Arnim

About the Winery

Cradled by mountains in the scenic Franschhoek valley, Cabrière is deeply rooted in history. The range of Pierre Jourdan wines produced on the estate honour the memory of French Huguenot Pierre Jourdan, who was granted the land on December 22, 1694. He named his property Cabrière, after the village he had fled from near Avignon, and planted the first vines.

Proprietor Achim von Arnim bought the land for the purpose of producing wine in the Champagne style, called Methodé Cap Classique or MCC in South Africa. An enthusiast whose lust for life is expressed in winegrowing. Achim says simply: “It was as if Cabrière had been waiting for me.”

Achim bought a second property, aptly named Haute Cabrière. The philosophy and speciality is producing wine exclusively from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The iconic Chardonnay Pinot Noir blend was a South African first, leading the market in a blend of these varietals.

Currently overseeing the wine-making is 2nd generation Cellar Master, Takuan von Arnim. He shares his father’s philosophy of the importance of terroir and the passion for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
