Olerasay No 3 NV Mullineux

Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (98)

The third-ever bottling of this wine, the NV Olerasay #3 is the estate's solara blend of Chenin Blanc made from the 2008 to 2021 vintages. The wine is pure, focused and impeccably weighted, with an electric nose that bursts from the glass with sweet florals, just-ripe quince and peach aromas. The palate is steeped with mouthwatering acidity and an exuberant concentration of fruit before revealing incredible complexity and a balanced profile that is instantly impressive and will remain a world-class dessert wine. Drenched in hedonism, the wine concludes with a seemingly unending array of stone fruit essence and sweet fruit tones. I cannot wait to see how this solera ages throughout its lifetime as it gains complexity with age. The dessert wine trophy hunters of the world would be wise to seek out a bottle of the Olerasay to add to their collection and cellars.

James Suckling (97)

A deep copper hue leads into apricot, peach marmalade, honeycomb and sweet thyme. Full-bodied and so decant and rich. The palate is deep and nutty. So complex and so delicious. Seamless with a thick, oily texture. Goes on for minutes. Superb. This will only get better, as long as you can resist opening the bottle. A solera blend of 14 vintages.
