It’s a magical time of the year when there is so much to celebrate, and nothing says celebration quite like a glass of chilled bubbly. So, celebrate in style with the magic of Krone Vintage Borealis Cuvée Brut 2019.
TASTING NOTES: Iridescent pale gold. Memories of the sea wash up with oyster shell and sea-breeze aromatics on entry which lead to bright green orchard apples, white blossoms, lemony freshness and a treacle hit of salted caramel. The Borealis presents deft and athletic on the palate with a contained energy and a creamy, fine-textured mousse. Yellow apples, kumquat and naartjie evolve with a touch of lemon meringue framing an iodine core; taut and true to 2019’s growing conditions, the acidity is firm and cleansing, revealing white ginger root on the finish.
FOOD PAIRING: Krone Borealis evokes a sense of discovery in dining – in a pure and natural way. The saline complexity of Krone‘s Borealis Cuvée Brut elevates the oceanic, making the ideal pairing for the simplest of seafoods, best served on the beach, such as naked oysters, mussels steamed open with seawater and salt-rubbed harders cooked over the coals. Also, ricotta and roasted tomato bruschetta with pancetta, lime-dressed angelfish ceviche, creamy porcini risotto, fire-roasted lemon-and-black pepper chicken kebabs.
PURCHASE: Krone Vintage Borealis Cuvée Brut 2019 is available for purchase at the estate, online at https://www.kronecapclassique.co.za/collections/vintage-mcc and are widely available nationally at select liquor retailers and grocers.
APPROXIMATE RETAIL PRICE: R172 per 750ml bottle
