The Cap Classique Producers' Association (CCPA) announces its participation in Prowein 2024, where it will host a pod at the WoSA stand in Hall 14 from 10-12 March.

The CCPA is set to present a curated selection of 12 superb Cap Classiques, each hailing from different regions and crafted in distinct styles, highlighting the remarkable quality that defines this unique category.

"We are delighted to be able to showcase 12 superb Cap Classiques, all from different regions and in different styles to showcase the incredible quality of the category,” says Caroline van Schalkwyk, marketing manager for the CCPA.“The association has meticulously chosen a range of fine examples, which will be available for tasting throughout the duration of Prowein at a dedicated self-pour pod,” she continues.

Both Pieter Ferreira, chairman of the CCPA, and Elunda Basson, vice chair, will be present at the fair, offering attendees a unique opportunity to engage with the driving forces behind Cap Classique.

Cap Classique, the term used for South African sparkling wine, represents a rich tradition of excellence and craftsmanship. Drawing inspiration from the traditional method, this sparkling wine undergoes secondary fermentation in the bottle, fostering the development of fine bubbles and a complex, effervescent character. The Cape's unique terroir imparts distinctive flavours, showcasing a harmonious balance of crisp acidity and nuanced fruit notes.

Cap Classique has become synonymous with celebrating both special occasions and everyday moments, earning a well-deserved reputation as a symbol of South African sparkling wine excellence, capturing the essence of the region's winemaking artistry.

Established in 1992, the CCPA was founded with the mission of promoting Cap Classique both locally and abroad, while fostering collaboration among producers for technical advancements. The association continues to play a pivotal role in elevating the profile of Cap Classique on the global stage.

Visit the CCPA pod at Prowein 2024 to experience the best of South African sparkling wine where tradition, innovation, and the Cape's unique terroir converge to create a sensory journey through the world of Cap Classique.
