The 2023 Mt Difficulty Roaring Meg Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrant Central Otago Sauvignon Blanc that offers a refreshing alternative to more overtly tropical styles. Sourced from selected vineyards across the region, it showcases the bright fruit intensity and mineral freshness that have become hallmarks of Mt Difficulty’s approachable Roaring Meg range.
On the palate, it is lively and expressive, with flavours of passionfruit, pineapple, pink grapefruit and crisp green apple supported by bright natural acidity. Subtle notes of fresh herbs and mineral nuances add complexity, while the texture remains clean and focused. The finish is crisp, refreshing and driven by citrus and mineral character, making it highly versatile with food.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic Sauvignon Blanc for customers who enjoy vibrant fruit flavours balanced by freshness and regional character. Its bright acidity and clean finish make it an excellent choice for everyday drinking and warm-weather dining. Best enjoyed young over the next 1–3 years. Pair with fresh oysters, grilled prawns, goat’s cheese salads, sushi or light seafood dishes.
