TWEE JONGE GEZELLEN
Krone Méthode Cap Classique is created on the
historical Twee Jonge Gezellen farm, a fusion of heritage and innovation. The
grapes are night harvested in the beautiful Tulbagh valley, flanked by rugged
mountains. The vineyards reach up the east-facing slopes of the Saron Peak,
while the underground cellar lies at the foot of the mountains. Krone pride
themselves on combining traditional techniques and innovative practices to
ensure that they produce the finest sparkling and still wines using Chardonnay
and Pinot grapes.
A treasured national monument, the historic farm
has recently re-opened after lengthy restoration and renovations. Visitors can
journey through a series of extraordinary spaces that are filled with
contemporary art, sculpture and collectible design, before moving on to sample
Krone’s vintage Cap Classiques.
Tastings are complimentary and the setting is extraordinary. The raised terrace
offers singular views of the picturesque valley and the Winterhoek, Witzenberg
and Obiqua Mountains, while the Tasting Room boasts a dramatic picture window
that unveils the workings of the cellar.
The Tasting Room and Deck are open Monday-Friday from
10h00-16h00, and on Saturdays from 10h00 to 14h00.
