The name MiruMiru translates to bubbles in Te Reo Maori.The nose exhibits light yeasty characters with peach and citrus aromas. Stored on lees for 18 months the wine has developed anelegant palate showing a blend of white peach and citrus Chardonnay components followed by the light berry fruits of the PinotNoir. The mouth filling mousse completes the palate that is full and persistent.
The grapes were picked at optimum fruit ripeness to obtain delicate fruit flavours and particular attention was placed on a goodacid/sugar balance of the fruit. The wine was treated by traditional methods, i.e. no sulphur was addedso subtle oxidation occurred (the reverse of methods used for treating our table wines) yet one can stillpick out the strong Marlborough fruit characters. The fruit was gently pressed with low litres per tonneextraction. The resultant juice was fermented in stainless steel tanks before undergoing full malolacticfermentation. The Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier parcels were kept separate, blending just beforetirage. This Non-Vintage Mthode Traditionelle spends 18 months on lees
