Tyrrell's Chardonnay Pinot Noir Brut NV 12% 750ml
TASTING NOTES
AROMA
The Chardonnay and Pinot Noir combine well to create a sparkling wine that is light and fresh. The nose gives off fine yeast and biscuit dough aromas.
PALATE
The palate features crisp chardonnay flavours and light crack yeast lees characteristics. The yeastiness adds a creamy texture and the generous fruit flavours give good weight and length. The acid on the finish balances and refreshes the palate.
WINEMAKERS COMMENTS
A European trip in 1977 sparked third generation winemaker Murray Tyrrell’s interest in Australian sparkling wine production. Murray already had a love of Champagne and “a stop was made at the Bollinger press house where Dad traded his expertise on how to best use a hand press for some time spent with their winemakers,” says Bruce Tyrrell. “The next day, he called me with instructions to buy all the Pinot Noir grapes on light soils in the Hunter Valley because he reckoned he could make champagne as well as the French did.”
