Mount Mary Quintet 2006

Description

Mount Mary produces premium quality table wines from a single vineyard estate in the heart of the Yarra Valley. Established in 1971, three generations of the Middleton family have dedicated themselves to wines of elegance, longevity and distinction. The Quintet blend is the flagship wine for the Mount Mary Estate. It represents the initial vision of Dr John Middleton when he was discovering the unique site that is Mount Mary. A terrific wine of superb balance and focus. Its smoky bouquet of small dark berries and plums overlies nuances of mushrooms, minerals and restrained cedary oak. Supremely long, elegant and fine-grained, it still presents remarkable depth and richness of dark cherry, plum and berry flavour underpinned by fine crunchy tannins, nuances of dried herbs and suggestions of briar and undergrowth. It finishes with exceptional length and tight-knit acidity.
