About this Item
“Bubbles have truly consumed my life. The process allows you to delve into just so many incredible facets, and, just in winemaking, you have to think about a wine that will only be released in four to six years, sometimes even longer. Bubbles is really in my blood, and I am just so happy that I can still be part of the journey.” - Pieter Ferreira
