Description
 
The winemaking tradition of the Grier family began in the 1970′s with cousins Jeff and Simon Grier qualifying as oenologist and viticulturist respectively. Their pursuit of winemaking excellence found a home in 1983 with the purchase of the Villiera vineyards in the Stellenbosch Region. Today, award-winning winemaker Jeff Grier crafts a range of wines characterized by a strong reflection of Villiera's unique terroir, maintaining the distinct aromas and flavours of the different varietals.

The non-vintage Tradition Brut, which is a blend of 50% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir and 20% Pinotage, has a respectable, quite steely bouquet with touches of apple blossom emerging with aeration. The palate is a little shrill on the entry, very citric and sharp, perhaps not the most complex Methode Cap Classique that I have encountered, though one can appreciate the freshness and "zip" on the finish. This is a well made sparkling South African wine. Wine Advocate 88
