“This Mirabelle Brut engages the nose with generous aromas of apple, pear, apricot, and melon, layered with hints of orange zest, ginger, caramelized pineapple, cinnamon spice, and vanilla. A crisp palate of lime, Meyer lemon, and tangerine intermingles with fruitful notes of peach and pear, and finishes with undertones of baked apple, and crème brûlee.”

"Plush and generous, with refined pear and cherry flavors accented with yeast roll and hazelnut as this glides on the silky finish."
