Mount Mary Quintet 1996

Description

Mount Mary commands an almost mythical status among wine collectors. Quintet is a Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Merlot and Petit Verdot blend. Owing to vine age,and judicious use of oak, the wine became richer and more complex during the 1990s. It exhibits a purity of fruit, poise and structure found in few Australian Cabernets. Just a single bottle from one of Sydney’s most renowned cellars is available; with the wine right in its ideal drinking window now this is a superb opportunity to experience one of the greatest Australian wines. 95 points Jeremy Oliver The Finer Details Style – Red Wine Varietal – Cabernet Sauvignon 45%, Merlot 30%, Cabernet Franc 16%, Malbec 4%, Petit Verdot 5% Country – Australia Region – Yarra Valley Vintage – 1996 Bottle Size – 750ml ABV – 12.5%
