Produced from 10-15 year old vines planted to Paarl's stony soil, the grapes for Robert Christopher's Sparkling Steen are harvested in February and the lees-aged finished wine, with a dollop of super-aromatic Hanepoort (Muscat) added late in the blend, is bottled by June. The winemaker's inspiration? The craving for a breakfast-suitable sparkling wine. Clever fellow.
