Bubbly with breakfast? Yes please! An early weekend morning drive out to Franschhoek means that you can pop in at Anthonij Rupert for breakfast & what better way than welcoming guests for breakfast than with a glass of ice cold Cap Classique? Now that's what #WineRoutingWithLloyd enjoys.
You'd have a choice of seating outside under the olive trees, or inside looking out onto the wine production & bottling line at the Terra del Capo Tasting Room. (Seating is limited, so naturally bookings are essential here.)
With a seasonal menu, selection is made easy & believe me; everything is good. From the Classic Farmhouse Breakfast & the Eggs Benedict to the Italian style 'Croque Madame' & Truffle Breakfast, you could even have something sweet with a Naartjie & Nutella Waffle. Freshly brewed Terbodore coffee fills the air & is very inviting, especially for those real early morning visits.
Why not head on upstairs for a bubbly tasting of the latest offerings of Cap Classique & indulge in a flight of bubbles to relax after breakfast?
- Brut Classique n/v
Fine bubbles with apple & hints of cinnamon on the nose. With some zesty lime to follow onto the palate. (All day, everyday bubbly!)
- Brut Rosé 2015
A gorgeous salmon pink colour with a fine string of bubbles in the glass. A nose full of gentle strawberries & cream that follow onto the palate along with more fresh crisp berries. (That Housewarming Welcome Drink)
- Blanc de Blancs 2013
A clear & crisp light golden hue in the glass. A nose of a fresh early morning sea breeze accompanied by ripe grapefruit. Incredibly pleasing on the palate with a slight minerality feel on initial taste, but smoothens & softens up accentuating those fruit flavours & finishes off with a crisp zesty lingering longing for more. (That Special Evening Bottle)
A wonderful treat to start the day in Franschhoek. But with so much more to do at Anthonij Rupert, you could just spend the whole day on the farm. A visit to the motor museum or even an Italian Cheese & Wine pairing. (See more about my previous visit here.)
