About this Item

2002 CWG 1001 Nights Muscat de Frontignan
3 (1 x 3) 500ml

Graham Beck, founded in 1983 and situated in the Breede River Valley, is one of South Africa's leading estates. Pieter Ferreira, who's affectionately known as Bubbles (because of his passion for Méthode Cap Classique and Champagne), has been the driving force at Graham Beck since 1990. They were one of the first farms to be awarded WWF Conservation Champion Status and have undertaken a number of environmental and philanthropic initiatives.

Hand selected and hand picked. Natural enzymatic fermentation on the skins, to develop 5% natural alcohol. Fermentation was then arrested by adding natural grape spirit. The wine was pressed and settled for 3 years in tank and then matured in old French oak barrels for 1001 nights.
Auction Year: 2008

Critics Ratings

‘Spicy and forward, with notes of maple syrup, fig bread, date, dried apricot and warm buttered brioche. Rich and unctuous, but shows a slight blip of heat on the finish.’ - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator
