This elegant and plush wine is compelling from the first whiff of brioche through creamy, baking-spice flavors to a lingering delicate finish. A luxurious mouthfeel, good balance
between crispness and ripeness and a profusion of flavor make it rival the quality of the parent brand, Schramsberg. (JG)

Alluring and nuanced, with expressive pear, brioche and caramelized hazelnut flavors that finish on a rich, polished note. (TF)

Wine Advocate
The NV Mirabelle Brut is made up of 56% Chardonnay and 44% Pinot Noir and was made using 84% fruit from the 2016 vintage, with the remainder coming from aged reserve lots. It has a bright, open nose of poached pears, red apples, toast, crushed stone and lemon juice. The medium-bodied palate is dry, bright and racy with finely beaded mousse, a saline current and lifted finish. The Mirabelle is generally aged on tirage about 18-28 months, and the entire case production is disgorged in several separate lots over about 10 months. (EB)
