Graham Beck is thrilled to share exciting news: two of our Cap Classiques – Artisan Collection Pinot Meunier 2022 and Pinot Noir Rosé 2019 – have recently claimed prestigious gold medals, both earning 96-point scores on both the local and international awards circuit.
The Artisan Collection Pinot Meunier 2022 has made history at the Investec Trophy Wine Show, becoming South Africa's first Agrafe-method Pinot Meunier Cap Classique to win gold. Not to be outdone, our pioneering co-pressed vintage Pinot Noir Rosé 2019 continues its award-winning streak with gold at the Decanter World Wine Awards, the world's most influential wine competition.
Hats off to our cellarmaster, Pierre de Klerk, and the entire cellar team for continuing to showcase our Cap Classique on the global stage.
Graham Beck Artisan Collection Pinot Meunier 2022
The Graham Beck Artisan Collection Pinot Meunier 2022 is a Blanc de Noirs, with an ever so slight, subtle hue of light pink resulting from the black grapes. Elegant, fresh nuances of white peach, red apple, young berries and spice rises from the glass, with undertones of floral notes developing as the wine opens up.
The palate is vibrant and fresh, yet creamy and textural thanks to the fermentation under cork. Flavours of ripe red apple, grapefruit and almonds adds to the complexity of the palate, while the vibrant acidity gives the wine great length and leads to a lingering, succulent finish.
Graham Beck Pinot Noir Rosé 2019
The Graham Beck Pinot Noir Rosé 2019 is a vintage rosé Cap Classique that is delicate and delightfully demure, yet superbly complex and rewarding. It has a beautiful salmon pink hue. Noticeable ripe blueberries and a subtle spiciness from the Pinot Noir with creamy complexity from the Chardonnay.
An explosion of raspberry fruit and slight honeysuckle flavours on the palate, with a persistent yet delicate mousse.
