in the cellar : Whenever conditions favour the production of fine sparkling wine we intend to create Monro Brut Priemiere Cuvee. The 1995 vintage was ideally suited to quality sparkling wine production. Although slightly warm, the fruit arrived in perfect condition and the result is in the bottle. For our 1995 Monro Brut, healthy whole grapes were pressed very gently using a Champagne pressing programme. Only the Cuvee (best quality juice) was used in the blend. The Chardonnay component was fermented in used barrels for extra complexity. After blending, Monro Brut can age for at least 3 years from date of purchase. With age the wine softens in flavour, maintaing its sparkle, giving a fulfilling balance of age and fruit.
