2018 House of Krone, Borealis Vintage Cuvée Brut
2018 House of Krone, Borealis Vintage Cuvée Brut The farm was established in 1710. After all this time it is still thought of as ground breaking and pioneering. The early 1950s saw the vision of owner cellar-master, N.C. Krone Snr, introduce cool fermentation, a first in the wine industry. In 1991 he very first Krone Borealis vintage, the 1987, was launched to much acclaim. The Krone Borealis Cuveé Brut 2012 wins a Gold Medal Award at The Michelangelo International Wine & Spirit Awards of South Africa. we love what we do. Which is why we have the passion to do it right. Along with that comes the drive to constantly revise and re-look at ways of improving our methods. We also have the good fortune of having a cellar master and winemaker par excellence in Nicky Krone and Matthew Krone. Sure, the quality of any wine depends upon the quality of the grapes which comes from having correct soils, sites & aspects, and sound vineyard practices – but there is no other wine product that is so totally dependent on the skills of the winemaker to reach its full potential. Which is why we consider the Krone MCC’s to be The True Celebration of the Vintner’s Art.
