Mount Mary Chardonnay 2003
Wonderfully balanced, smooth and composed chardonnay of seamless length and exceptional concentration. Its youthful aromas of tropical fruits, melon and white peach reveal underlying notes of chalk and minerals, with reserved oak influences and suggestions of cashew. Its long, sumptuous baby fat-like palate of sweet melon and tangy tangerine flavours culminates in a tight and harmonious finish with lingering mealy and nutmeg-like subtleties.

Mount Mary
Mount Mary is one of the Yarra Valley's iconic estates. Developed by Dr John Middleton in the late 1960s, it has always followed its own path, drawing inspiration from France and the US. Shunning higher levels of alcohol and overt oak influence are central to the Mount Mary concept of balance and quality, ideals that have been retained by grandson Sam Middleton and his team. The 2013 red releases are stellar indeed, with the Quintet revealing a little more power and structure than the wines of yesteryear, but with classical balance and style, still weighing in at under 13%.
