Garuzis Brut NV
Garuzis, a magical place in what is today known as Etosha – then without borders or fences – where our great-grandmother grew up in the wild.
We celebrate our heritage, and her free spirit, with the Garuzis Brut, made using the traditional method and aged for 30 months on the lees before degorgement.
Notes of fresh granny smith apple, lime, and white peaches are beautifully complimented by hints of brioche, honey, and almonds and a zesty freshness.
