GOLD/95 POINTS Decanter World Wine Awards 2025
A complex scent package of peach, pink grapefruit and a topline of
alpine herbs. Graceful and lithe with bright acidity and a cashew cream
mousse.
4.5 STARS Michael Cooper, March 2025
‘MiruMiru’ (‘Bubbles’) is Hunter’s biggest-selling wine in New
Zealand. This Marlborough sparkling is disgorged after a minimum of 18 moths on its yeast lees (earlier than its Reserve stablemate) and has a lower Pinot Noir content. The nonvintage I tasted in early 2025 is a
blend of Chardonnay (49%), Pinot Noir (48%) and Pinot Meunier (3%),
grown in the Wairau Valley. Offering great drinkability, it is fresh,
vibrantly fruity and finely balanced, with a very good intensity of
peachy, citrusy, gently biscuity flavours, and a lively off-dry smooth
finish.

Joelle Thomson - Drink Biz, December 2024
Hunter’s Wines is a member of Methode Marlborough, a group that champions high quality sparkling wines made using the same techniques as champagne, and great bubbles like this are the result. Light pink with deep berry flavours and a totally dry taste, this wine is beautifully balanced and lively with depth of bubbles.
4.5 STARS Cuisine Magazine, November Issue, 2024
A delightful pale pink with lots of complexity on the nose. Fresh, bright, sweet fruit aromas sit against chocolate and brioche aromas which segue through to the palate. The palate is weighty with sweet red fruit flavours that are juicy on the mid palate.
SILVER NZ International Wine Show 2024, October 2024SILVER Dish , November Issue, 2024EXCELLENT Mark Henderson - Otago Daily Times, September 2024
That toasty/warm brioche thing is going on here, shifts to strawberry and cream, evolves again to lovely perfume, savoury notes later still. The palate echoes the nose, savoury elements evident picking up zesty cranberry and pink grapefruit nuances. Freshness and vibrancy, full of interest, moving to a delightfully creamy close.
93 POINTS Cameron Douglas MS, The Shout, September 2024
A delicious wine with a fruity bouquet, layers of autolysis, and energy. A dry wine that touches the palate with a bold and expressive mousse, fine to moderate bubbles, and a crunchy texture. Plush and ripe red fruit flavours of raspberry and plum, with some strawberry and velvety rose suggestions. Well made, balanced, and ready to drink from the day of purchase through 2029.

John Bartlett, NZ Wine Directory, April 2025
Pale lemon – gold in colour mousse on pouring, tiny persistent bubbles/bead. An aromatic nose of stone-fruit, berry, lemon citrus and vanilla biscuit aromas. Crisp citrus, juicy stone-fruit and green apple flavours on the palate, a nice citrus bite/acidity, then nutty leesy, creamy layers of complexity and texture follow – long, intense dry finish. Comprised of 77% Pinot Noir and 23% Chardonnay, full malolactic fermentation & aged on lees in bottle for a minimum of three years before disgorgement. Gorgeous!
EXCELLENT Mark Henderson, Otago Daily Times, April 25
Fresh, bright, the bready, tasty notes interwoven with fruit & a flinty aspect. Very engaging. A lightness of touch to this, a sense of elegance, citrus, bread dough yeasty qualities, delightfully fresh & balanced. So easy to top up a glass of this. With air, that yeasty umami quality grows on the nose, the mousse filling the mouth. Yum.
WINE OF THE WEEK Joelle Thomson, March 2025
With Methode Marlborough Day held this week, it seems timely to make it a sparkling wine of the week and what better than the toasty richness of this dry, long aged Pinot Noir led bubbly from Hunter’s Wines. It’s a rhetorical question and a great wine. This is 77% Pinot Noir and 23% Chardonnay, which adds the crispness and freshness to the great depths of Pinot’s body, mouthfilling broadness and layers of savoury deliciousness. Great wine. Great to celebrate being able to enjoy it when the world is so full of so many big challenges right now.
EXCELLENT Michael Cooper, March 2025
This is one of Marlborough’s best sparkling’s, full and lively, with loads of peachy, yeasty, nutty flavour, and a creamy long finish. The refined, rich 2020 vintage is a vivacious blend of Pinot Noir (77%) and Chardonnay (23%), disgorged after maturing for nearly four years on its lees. Bright, light yellow/green, with a fragrant, biscuity bouquet, it is savoury and complex, with peachy, nutty flavours and a harmonious, off-dry, very smooth and lasting finish.
