MiruMiru™ Reserve 2004

This sparkling wine was made by employing the traditional Methode
Champenoise techniques, using the Champagne varieties, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier. Each variety displays its own individual aroma and fl avours which when blended make a sparkling wine with full flavour and great length.
The nose has complex autolytic yeast characters backed by lifted ripe stone fruit aromas. Good fresh fi ne acidity on the palate balanced by dry stone fruit and dry biscuit/cashew characters from the yeast autolysis. Good length with a fine mousse leaving a full refreshing flavoursome palate.
