Graham Beck Wines celebrates 25 sparkling vintages

Graham Beck Wines celebrates a pinnacle milestone of 25 sparkling years in the South African wine industry.

GB3“Attaining the milestone of 25 vintages in the challenging, yet deeply rewarding wine industry is indeed a prestigious and joyous occasion,” says the man in chase of the perfect bubble, cellarmaster Pieter Ferreira.

From the maiden vintage in 1991 on the Madeba Estate in Robertson the extraordinary journey of discovery in pursuit of the perfect bubble commenced. Today this cellar is considered one of the country’s finest Méthode Cap Classique (MCC) producers and eminently worthy of sharing the international stage with the best wines globally. Honing a craft over 25 years ensured that Graham Beck Cap Classique wines, as well as the cellar’s’ distinctive portfolio of world class wines all have an international flavour with the golden tread through the wines being equality, finesse and timeless appeal.

Not only has this cellar created internationally celebrated wines over the past quarter of a century, but it helped to establish the Robertson region as one of the most important viticultural areas for growing Chardonnay and Pinot Noir for the production of Cap Classique.

“Through the years we have strived for consistency and continuous innovation,” says Pieter. “Each exquisitely crafted wine is unique in both its style and individual characteristics, demonstrating our unwavering commitment in the creation of sparkling wines which define class, sophistication, timelessness and superb quality. This quest for excellence was inspired by our late founder,. Graham Beck.”

“Our versatile portfolio continues to win over the palates and hearts of wine lovers and critics alike across the globe. We are both honoured and humbled to be the bubbly of choice amongst several high profile international icons, the likes of Obama, Tata Madiba, the British and Swedish Royal Families and even rock star ‘royalty’ such as U2’s Bono. Whether enjoyed by princes or presidents, in palaces or simply savoured in good company amongst family and cherished friends, these award-winning MCC’s continue to raise the bar and redefine elegance.”

With the 25th year celebrations, Graham Beck Wines is elated to share this remarkable odyssey with you – the cellar’s pursuit of the perfect bubble – with a rare tasting of several gems from the past 25 years.

“Every bubble reflects the passion, pride and pleasure this journey has instilled in us, as well as our delight in welcoming you along to share the ride.”
