Product Description
This Méthode Cap Classique is the result of a collaboration between the Myburgh family of Joostenberg Wine Estate in Paarl and the Pujol-Busquets family of Alta Alella Mirgin Winery near Barcelona. Both families share a passion for authenticity and excellence in wine, a commitment to organic farming and a belief that a healthy, diverse environment produces better wines.
The name “Niu”, and the label illustration, were inspired by the Barn Swallow (Hirundo rustica), which migrates annually between Spain and Southern Africa. These birds return to the same nest, called niu in Catalan, and mate for life. In Catalonia, Barn Swallows are considered sacred, and damaging their nests can result in a significant fine.
A crisp and elegant sparkling wine with notes of fresh green apple and baked apple crumble. Bone-dry in style, it will become more layered and complex with time.
