Morgenhof Estate Brut Reserve 2005

This Methode Cap Classique has a biscuity nose filled with flavours of peaches and apples. The palate has a good acidity which adds to a lot of freshness, quite full-bodied in style with a long finish.

To be enjoyed at special occasions and perfect as a welcoming drink. Also a great match with oysters, sushi and canapés.
