CLIFTON CUVÉE PRESTIGE

SPARKLING WINE


Upon first glance, the wine exhibits a green to light yellow tint. The nose reveals hints of sweetness, light tropical fruits such as peach, a touch of almond, and rich creamy flavours. The palate is greeted with flavours such as citrus, white peach, and green apple, followed by a lingering sweetness that culminates in a crisp acidity and finishes with a biscuity/yeasty aftertaste, delivering a delightful drinking experience. This wine is served best, chilled and enjoyed on warm summer days.

Clifton Gin Flavour

MOMENTS

The iconic Clifton beaches are ranged at the bottom of craggy, rugged cliffs, after which they are named. Once an isolated outpost, today these are some of the most exclusive beaches (and neighbourhoods) in Cape Town. Clifton Gold is inspired by the colours of the sunset glinting off the clear Atlantic ocean.
