Description

The name ‘Pressure Point’ is a tongue in cheek reference to the tight labelling laws around the naming conventions of sparkling wine in South Africa. 

On paper and on first tasting impressions the 2025 vintage appears to be one of the very best in recent times, especially for whites and sparkling wines. Rain at just the right time during the growing season, a slightly cooler summer and a glorious final 2 weeks before harvest have ensured that ripeness and acidity are beautifully in balance. From 30 year old bushvine Cinsault from a single dry-farmed block in Agter-Paarl. The early picked grapes are gently pressed and the juice allowed to settle for 24 hours before decanting. 

A pale coral pink colour from just a few hours in the press. Delicate and expressive with fragrant strawberry and redcurrant aromas, lightly yeasty notes and a hint of summer pudding. Bright and refreshing on the palate with tangy cranberry and crushed red fruit flavours and a clean, appetising finish.

Try with smoked salmon, cured meats or freshly dressed salads.
