Winery: Blue Pyrenees Region: Pyrenees, Victoria Variety: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir   Your Wine Guy says:   The Midnight Cuvee – so named because the grapes are picked in the cool of the night – is bright, pale gold in colour, with a soft, consistent bead. The nose is delicate, with complex characters of freshly baked bread and yeast. Some nuttiness and light stone fruit aromas are evident too. Gentle bubbles caress the palate to give a silky mouth feel. The rich mid palate exhibits great texture and a fine acid backbone. This is a wine of great elegance, balance and finesse, with a long, clean and lingering finish. Reminiscent of a nice vintage Champagne, and a fraction of their price. 94 Points YWG Drink to 2014+   The winemaker says:   Colour: Brilliant pale straw with a fine bead of gentle bubbles. Nose: The aroma is delicate and complex with the yeast autolysis character of freshly baked bread complimented by citrus fruits and hazelnuts. Palate: The bright, green apple flavoured palate exhibits a fine acid backbone which enhances the fresh doughy yeast notes and fine refreshing effervescence.   Winery/Label Information:   The production of “methode traditionelle” sparkling wines has been an integral part of the winemaking at Blue Pyrenees Estate for many years. Although hand picked fruit is often desired for the production of the premium cuvee juices, day time temperatures in Australia can mean that hand picked fruit is often quite warm when received into the press after a day’s picking. In 1992, the team at Blue Pyrenees decided to experiment with hand picking fruit in the middle of the night, under floodlights, to optimize both fruit condition and temperature. The results were amazing – crisp and clean cuvee juices of outstanding quality. The Midnight Cuvee was born! Nowadays the Blue Pyrenees team select the best fruit parcels, whilst on the vine, to be separated out from the rest and picked at night by hand to generate the juices that will become the Midnight Cuvee. Although very laborious and time consuming, the rewards are evident in the glass. The Blue Pyrenees Estate Midnight Cuvee is made entirely from estate grown fruit – predominantly Chardonnay with a touch of Pinot Noir.
