Mount Mary Pinot Noir 2006
A fine, supple and willowy longer-term pinot whose delicate floral perfume of raspberries, cherries, red plums and restrained cedary oak reveals a subtle presence of undergrowth and dried herbs, cloves and nutmeg. Initially sweet and forward, with some lively cherry/berry flavour, it becomes more sappy, lean and restrained as it extends towards its fine, silky finish of lingering fruit and refreshing acidity.

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%.
