Krone Vintage-Only Cap Classique handcrafted in Tulbagh, South Africa | Enjoy responsibly

We have set up the Krone page on Facebook as the ultimate forum for friends of our Krone Vintage-Only Cap Classique. Join a community of like-minded friends who love Cap Classique and all the magical things that go with it. Cap Classique is the South African term used to describe sparkling wines made by the classic French traditional method. Cap Classique refers to sparkling wines that undergo sec

ond fermentation in the bottle. Under an agreement with France, South Africa does not use the term ‘champagne’ which, correctly, is a geographic appellation describing the sparkling wines from the Champagne area of France.

Friend of Krone, chef and writer Jago Rackham , has published a new book “To Entertain: Instructions for a Dinner Party“ which we’ll be putting to good use.

Like us, he is a huge fan of cooking Family Style which is where we love to bring our Brut Cuvée to start, Amphora Blanc de Blancs for mains (we chose the duck) and our Kaaimansgat for the last course.

Chef’s kiss.

“In His East London Home, This Debut Cookbook Writer Served Cake, Caviar Chips, and Organized Chaos.” And Krone.

To launch his new cookbook ‘To Entertain: Instructions For a Dinner Party’, Jago Rackham gathered friends in his and his partner Lowena Hearn ’s home to celebrate.

Anna Cafolla writes for that “For drinks, guests enjoyed South African winery Krone’s Cap Classique, a vintage sparkling wine produced in champagne traditions” and helped themselves to tins of Ronan Caviar sat atop cold contretemps stones, which people spooned onto fistfuls of chips”.

And “at the centre of the curated culinary chaos? A gigantic domed cake filled with Cornish strawberry jam and rosemary syrup, sculpted jagged peaks of ivory buttercream. “It’s like the Titanic,” he observes.”

Our clay amphora allows the cap classique to breathe gently, softening its edges while preserving its purity and character. It’s not just a method, it’s a return to patience, to craftsmanship, which lets nature lead.

“Cap Classique - the South African answer to champagne - is a fast-growing category, and Krone’s vintage-only wines are among the top tier. A-list winemaker Rudiger Gretschel has honed a range that includes more classic-style bruts, single vineyard cuvées and even a blanc de blancs aged in amphorae. The beautifully restored farm in Tulbagh often hosts collaborations with visiting artists and chefs.
