Why Cap Classique Is Like Homebrewed Kombucha—And Why You Should Try Both
When participants at our wine events ask, “What is a Cap Classique?” I explain South Africa’s sparkling wine tradition using the homey analogy of bottle-fermented kombucha. Sharing my own kitchen experiment—grape-infused, second-ferment sparkling kombucha—brings the process to life.

The result? A rewarding, bubbly celebration of flavour and fun at any scale.
