{"product_id":"marlborough-sun-chardonnay-2024","title":"Marlborough Sun Chardonnay 2024","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"Bright, even, pale straw yellow. The nose is softly full, with aromas of cashew, stonefruit, pear and lemon. Medium-bodied, aromas of lemon, pear and peach intermixed with cashew and hay. The fruit is forward with good flavour and lively acidity; gentle creaminess elevates and carries a pleasing finish\" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Jun 2025\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"It's elegantly fragrant on the nose with notes of ripe peach, citrus peel, and nougat. The palate delivers ripe fruit flavours with a rounded mouthfeel and smooth texture, well-balanced by bright acidity, offering friendly drinking. At its best: now to 2027\" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jun 2025\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Aromas and flavours of white peach and apple, there’s a light lees and vanilla cream quality then gravelly stone earthy undertone. Medium+ weight with a light creamy texture, some superfine fruit tannins leading to a lemon skin and apple finish. Best drinking from 2025 through 2027\" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe kept it simple while crafting this 2024 Chardonnay, because great wine doesn’t need to be complicated. Grapes from across Marlborough were picked right when they were bursting with flavour, no fancy tricks, just good timing. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom there, we pressed, settled, and got things fermenting in stainless steel tanks, using select yeasts. A touch of oak staves brought complexity and structure to the palate alongside a full malolactic fermentation to smooth it all out. Nine months of aging and slight fining, and this Chardonnay was ready to roll. Crack it open, pour a glass, and let the Marlborough Sun do the rest. For the palate, think ripe stone fruits, peach and nectarine all tied together with creamy custard and vanilla bean, simply delicious! \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MtOlympus","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50459989836093,"sku":"767354 W52619","price":77.94,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/9211\/5773\/files\/MarlboroughSunChardonnay2024.jpg?v=1751494720","url":"https:\/\/www.blackmarket.co.nz\/products\/marlborough-sun-chardonnay-2024","provider":"Black Market","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
