The Bubbles
Lanzerac
Blanc De Blancs Brut
How it’s made: Under the appellation Méthode Cap Classique, or MCC.
Where it’s from: The Stellenbosch wine region of South Africa.
How it tastes: Creamy and refined, with fine and precise bubbles that will dance on your tongue. Biscuit notes and a yeasty undercurrent give texture and interest to lively citrus and apple notes.
How to drink it: Try it with a simple pear and parmesan salad or freshly baked bread dipped in Egyptian Dukkha.
Gran Codorníu
Reserva Chardonnay Brut Cava
How it’s made: Using the ‘traditional method’, the same used to make Champagne.
Where it’s from: The traditional Cava-producing region of Spain – Catalonia.
How it tastes: You should smell toasty notes from the wine’s time spent in contact with yeast, along with bright summer fruits like peach and cherry.
How to drink it: Drink this wine chilled between six and eight degrees Celsius. A complex sparkling wine, this Cava is perfect served with a meal, such as risotto or duck magret.
