About this Item

Domaine des Dieux
2010 Rose of Sharon Méthode Cap Classique
6 (1 x 6) 750ml

Domaine des Dieux is a boutique family-run wine farm, bought in 2002 by two wine lovers with a dream. Sharon Parnell and Peter Clarke has transformed what was once sheep pastures, into 28Ha of vineyards, producing premium award winning wines. A combination of good quality grapes, much patience and a love of champagne set the stage for Domaine des Dieux to officially become the first producer of Methode Cap Classique in the Hemel-en-Aarde region.

The Rose of Sharon Méthode Cap Classique is a blend of 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay, all sourced from parcels in the Hemel-en-Aarde ridge. The premium quality grapes results in wines of longevity and finesse.

Critics Ratings

‘The cool climate conditions of the Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge are ideal for growing sparkling wine grapes, yet this is one of the very few examples of the style. Pale, subtle and scented, Sharon Parnell’s Pinot-dominated fizz is elegant, red-fruited and dry. 2017-19’ - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2017, 92/100

‘Classically crafted 2010 sparkling, pinot noir-led with chardonnay, has more substance than 2009 (3 stars, 81 pts). Subtle crushed berries on brioche, with creamy mousse & textured finish. Walker Bay WO.’ - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2017, 4*
