Bubbly With Their Birthday Flowers

Flowers say you remembered. A bottle of Krone says the evening is going to be a good one. Add Night Nectar to a birthday bouquet or gift box and it arrives together, with your message written by hand on the card, ready to open the moment the door closes behind the delivery driver.

For an Anniversary or a Night In for Two

Night Nectar is the bubbly for people who find Brut too sharp. It is soft, honeyed and easy to love, which makes it a natural choice for an anniversary dinner, a proposal or simply a Friday that deserves a little more. Chill it, light a candle and let the rest of the week go. For more ideas, see our romantic gifts.

Congratulations, for a Client, a Colleague or a Friend

A new job, a promotion, a deal signed or a house bought: some news needs a cork popped. A bottle of Krone is a thank-you or a well done that nobody leaves in a drawer. Ordering for several people?

A Toast Sent Home From Overseas

For South Africans in London, Sydney or Toronto, a bottle of Krone on the table at home says you are part of the celebration even when you cannot be in the room. Order online from anywhere, add your message at checkout, and we deliver it with your words handwritten on the card. If you are in the UK, see our guide to sending flowers and gifts from the UK to South Africa.

How to Serve Krone Night Nectar

Chill the bottle in the fridge for three to four hours, or in an ice bucket with water and ice for about twenty minutes, and serve it cold. Open it slowly with the cork angled away from everyone, and pour into flutes or white wine glasses. Because it is demi-sec, it is lovely with dessert, fruit tarts, cheesecake and mildly spicy food. If they prefer a drier bubbly, our champagne and wine collection has Brut options too.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Krone Night Nectar?

Krone Night Nectar is a demi-sec Méthode Cap Classique, a South African sparkling wine made in the traditional bottle-fermented way. Krone makes it from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir at the Twee Jonge Gezellen estate in Tulbagh.

Is Krone Night Nectar wine or champagne?

It is a sparkling wine. It is made the same way as champagne, but only wine from the Champagne region of France can be called champagne, so South African bottle-fermented sparkling wine is called Méthode Cap Classique, or MCC.

Is Krone Night Nectar sweet?

Yes, gently. Demi-sec means it is finished with a sweeter dosage than a Brut, so it tastes honeyed and soft rather than dry. If they prefer a dry bubbly, choose a Brut instead.

What does Krone Night Nectar taste like?

Expect ripe pear, honeyed citrus and toasty brioche, with a fine, creamy mousse and a long, soft finish.

What is the alcohol percentage of Krone Night Nectar?

It is roughly 11 to 12% alcohol by volume. The exact figure changes slightly from vintage to vintage and is printed on the back label.

Can I order Krone Night Nectar on its own?

Yes. You can order the bottle on its own, or add it to flowers or a gift box so everything arrives together.

Can you deliver it today?

Yes, in Cape Town. Order before 12pm and our own drivers deliver it the same day. Anywhere else in South Africa, it arrives by courier in 2 to 4 business days.

Can I include a card message?

Yes. Add your message at checkout and we write it by hand on the card that comes with the bottle.
