2019 Mount Mary Vineyard, Quintet, Yarra Valley, Australia

Description

The 2019 Quintet is made from 44% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 16% Cabernet Franc, 5% Malbec and 5% Petit Verdot. The wine has a light, elegant nose of fresh but ripe blackcurrants followed by a layered palate of creamy, sweet blackberry fruit. There is a fine, gravel core to this with a leafy hint of the Cabernet Franc coming through, adding freshness. This is a mineral and pure New World expression of a Bordeaux blend, and one which is both beautifully sophisticated and wonderfully harmonious. Drink 2022-2032.

Yarra Valley

Yarra Valley

Victoria’s oldest viticultural area dates back to 1837. It was initially admired for its dry wines before losing to the fortifieds from South Australia and, latterly, the dairy cow. The 1960s saw its revival with the launch of Yarra Yering in 1969 and Mount Mary in 1971. Famous for its Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, the region has also attracted interest from sparkling houses, notably Domaine Chandon.

Mount Mary Vineyard

Mount Mary has an exalted reputation in the wine world and has accrued a somewhat cult following. Established in the Yarra Valley in 1971, with an annual production of around 3,000 cases, it continues the legacy of its founding father, winemaker Dr John Middleton -who died aged 82 on 27 June 2006- to produce superbly refined, powerful Cabernets and elegant, long-lived Pinot Noirs. The Triolet blend and Chardonnay are two superb offerings from the white stable. It's just a pity so little is made!
