If there’s one thing South Africans know how to do well, it’s celebrate the moment, and nothing says celebration quite like a glass of Cap Classique 🥂
Enter Christina Cap Classique, a premium bubbly from Van Loveren Family Vineyards in Robertson that is all about elegance, heritage, and exceptional taste.
✨ The Woman Behind the Bubbles
With nearly 30 years of winemaking experience, Danelle Conradie is the powerhouse behind Christina Cap Classique.
Her journey has taken her from South Africa’s leading wine regions, to harvest seasons in Australia and Switzerland, and through the vineyards of France.
Her philosophy is simple, no shortcuts, just passion, patience, and precision.
And you can taste that dedication in every sip.
🥂 What Makes Christina Cap Classique Special
The stars of the collection are Christina Brut NV and Christina Brut Rosé NV.
These award winning bubblies, recognised at the Decanter World Wine Awards and Veritas Awards, deliver a beautifully balanced experience.
Flavour notes include red apple, citrus peel, biscuit, and lime, creating a profile that is fresh yet layered.
The texture is just as impressive, with fine soft bubbles and a crisp, smooth finish.
It is the perfect balance of freshness and richness that makes every glass memorable.
🌿 Crafted with Care, From Vine to Glass
Great bubbly starts in the vineyard, and Christina is no exception.
Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes are hand picked from older vines in mid January, ensuring optimal freshness.
After fermentation, the wines are aged on the lees, developing depth, texture, and complexity.
The result is a Cap Classique that feels vibrant, refined, and effortlessly elegant.
🍽️ What to Pair It With
This is where it gets exciting.
Christina Cap Classique is incredibly versatile and works beautifully across different occasions.
Enjoy it with oysters at sunset, sushi on a warm evening, a celebratory toast, or simply as a treat for yourself.
👑 A Legacy in Every Bottle
The Christina range is named after Christina van Loveren, the original family matriarch who arrived in the Cape in 1699.
Her legacy lives on through this premium collection, which includes elegant white and red wines, a 10 year old potstill brandy, and the standout Cap Classiques.
It is a true reflection of heritage, craftsmanship, and timeless style.
📍 Where to Get It

🥂 Final Sip
Christina Cap Classique is more than just a drink, it is an invitation to slow down, celebrate, and savour the moment.
