Mount Mary Chardonnay 2011
Very classy, superbly balanced and complete, with a complex bouquet of white peach, nectarine and grapefruit underpinned by nougat-like, creamy, leesy undertones and a hint of smoked bacon. Long and elegant, its brightly flavoured presence of citrusy fruit has an appealing plumpness and oak sweetness tightly reined in by trim, nervy acids. Supported by a fine mineral chalkiness, it extends long and focused towards a finely crafted and savoury finish with a lingering briny aspect.

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%.
