Some exciting new for Genevieve MCC 2008 lovers…

Last month we disgorged our next batch of the 2008 vintage, the initial release was only 1500 bottles out of  5500 bottles  produced of 2008 vintage, well everyone enjoyed them so much we had to push the next batch up by a couple of months.
We have now disgorged a further 2000 bottles, these have been on the lees for 23 months and after it had settled in the bottle it’s tasting gorgeous..
Those delicate white fruit characteristics are still there with a beautiful deepened biscuit  flavour  coming  through even more now.
Enjoy they are flying fast!

Genevieve MCC pairs up with Africhic.com for Champagne Shopping.

africhic.com, the brand new fashion e-boutique for African designers, has made its catwalk debut with an exclusive ‘discover African design’ press launch.

africhic.com launch

Held on 28th of January 09, the new gallery at Ellerman House in Cape town played host to a select crowd of magazine editors and fashion mavens. The clothes and accessories designers themselves also came to fly to flag for this exciting e-tail venture that offers a global platform for homegrown labels such as Lalesso, Michelle Ludek, Nazir, Suzaan Heyns, Superella, Thula Sindi, Missibaba, urban africa, Ida Elsje and Philippa Green.

The fashionable crowd looked stunning dressed in chic evening wear including Michelle Cowley in a black&white Marion&Lindie dress, her sister Lisa in a red evening gown from NY brand 12 street. Presenter Isabella de Villiers rocked a vintage outfit rounded with very dark lips for a great contrast. Actress Amanda Dilima chose a fabulous Suzaan Heyns dress with signature shoulder detail in leather and very feminine hip pocket detail. The woman behind the venture, Sylvia Gruber, greeted guests in a figure-hugging full length dress from Nazir (available at africhic.com) demonstrating that high style is now just one click away.

After mingling at the reception area with a glass or two of Cap Classique from Genevieve enjoying the beautiful weather and views of Bantry Bay, the guests were lead into the Gallery where africhic.com fashion was displayed all amongst beautiful contemporary art – creating an ambience to perfectly convey the ‘discover African design’ message. After a presentation about the brand, the guests were all then invited to help themselves to a shopping voucher and to start shopping.

The bubbles go on and on..November

The bubbles go on – and on, and on …
November 26th, 2009 by Cathy Marston

Truly sorry if you don’t like sparkling wine folks, but it just seems that EVERYTHING I am going to these days involves fizz. In fact, now I think about it, actually I am not going to apologise for this because the more fizz and fun in your life, the better it is.

This is especially true if you get invited to a champagne brunch at 10am on a Thursday morning – a particularly decadent time for drinking if you ask me. The Sky Bar at the top of the Cape Royale seems to be the place to launch your bubbly these days (see below) and Melissa Nelsen couldn’t have chosen a better spot if she tried. Her maiden fizz, Genevieve, refers to her middle name and not that 1950’s British movie involving the London to Brighton vintage road race, although I am sure a bottle or two would help all the Hooray Henrys immensely! She says that fizz is currently her passion and not her profession (she does the marketing for several exclusive Walker Bay wine estates including Niels and Penny Verburg’s lovely Luddite) but you can tell she really wants to do this full time.

And why not? This is a great first effort, a blanc de blanc made from 100% Chardonnay with the help of fizz fundi, Ross Gower. Lots of toast, biscuits, lemons and limes and a worryingly quaffable quality to it (probably helped by the many smiling waiters who kept cropping up at my elbow with full bottles). Nice nibbles, lovely views, perfect start to the day.
