I love when you unintentionally come across totally palate-blowing wine and food matches. The latest to add to the list is Kalamata olives marinated in oil and balsamic with this new release 3drops 2018 Great Southern Chardonnay.

I had already wrote my tasting note for the wine and then I had a few olives as I was cooking while finishing off my glass of wine and wow πŸ’₯ the two went beautifully. The strong olive taste really mellowed out the acidity and made the fruit shine.

As mentioned this is a brand new release from the 3drops team. From it’s pale lemon colour to aromas of peach, honeydew melon and vanilla, it captured my attention before I even sipped it! The bright acidity on the palate suggests this one will age well over the next few years - alongside drinking right here and now too πŸ˜‰

A big thanks to Jo from 3drops for sending this sample over.

PS: How cool are our wine-y olive forks we got from some lovely friends 😍

All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective & always evolving, so make sure you drink what you enjoy!
