Mount Olympus Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2024

Description

Apple, Dry, Feijoa

"Upfront and intensely aromatic, showing Granny Smith apple, ripe capsicum, feijoa and lemon zest aromas. The palate delivers excellent fruit intensity with vibrant mouthfeel, leading to a delightfully flavoursome, lively finish" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Sep 2024

"A classically styled wine with a pungent bouquet of passionfruit and citrus, lots of apple, nettles and fresh herbs. Crisp and just dry on the plate, there’s a tickle of sweetness though mostly fruit centric driving core flavours. Refreshing and salivating, steely and ready to drink from day of purchase through 2027" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Mar 2025

On the nose, a lively bouquet of tropical fruits leaps from the glass, with ripe passionfruit and zesty grapefruit leading the way. The aromas are fresh, expressive, and full of energy. On the palate, the wine is crisp and refreshing, delivering a full, layered experience. Juicy gooseberry and blackcurrant notes dance across the palate, complemented by a burst of citrus that adds a zippy, mouthwatering finish. The texture is both crisp and generous, making for a well-balanced and invigorating wine.

Food Pairing: Enjoy now for its vibrancy or cellar for 2-3 years to develop further complexity. Perfect alongside fresh seafood dishes such as oysters, grilled prawns, or ceviche. It also pairs beautifully with goat cheese salads, asparagus risotto, or lightly spiced Thai cuisine.
