MCC - Methode Cap Classique

South African MCC (Méthode Cap Classique) refers to sparkling wines produced in South Africa using the traditional method, also known as the méthode champenoise. With its increasing recognition and refined craftsmanship, MCC represents a prominent and exciting segment of South Africa’s wine industry.

MCC is typically made from classic Champagne varieties, such as Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, though other varietals are also used. South African producers have gained international acclaim for their MCC wines, which often offer a balance of crisp acidity, fine bubbles, and toasty, yeasty notes.
