Pongracz Brut

This is a timeless Cap Classique with great elegance and complexity. Crisp green
apple notes and nuttiness of freshly baked bread are prevalent on the nose. On
the palate, delicate yeasty tones, layered with toast and ripe fruit are enlivened
by a firm mousse and persistent bead that make it particularly attractive. It
imparts a wonderful foamy mouthful of blackberry fruit flavours with a long
lingering aftertaste.
