Award: Independent Wines Direct Tasting - Angela Mount 2014 - Angela Mount's Top 10 White Wines For Christmas 2013
Tasting notes: The flint coloured bottle and sea blue label are a good indication of what this award winning dry white is all about. Winner of the IWSC trophy for New Zealand wine producer of the year in 2012, Matua, the first winery to plant Sauvignon Blanc grapes in the country, has just released its 2013 vintage. With very young, vibrant, but characterful, passion fruit and peach aromas, this youthful wine sings with verve and freshness, yet with none of the awkwardness of many young wines. It’s full of freshly squeezed lime and passion fruit flavour, racy, edgy, and exuberant. I’d love to try it with Thai chicken curry, spicy seafood, and a whole host of vegetarian dishes. It’s one of the most versatile, equally at home with spicy party nibbles, a bowl of steaming hot Thai chicken curry, or a refreshing glass as an aperitif on Christmas or Boxing Day.
