Mount Mary Quintet Yarra Valley, Australia – 2018

Mount Mary is recognised by Australia’s prestigious “Langton’s Classification” as one of the country’s five “Grands Crus”. According to James Halliday they are the leading producer in the Yarra Valley region north of Melbourne. Established in 1971, they were the pioneers of the Yarra Valley and from the outset have made wines which consistently verge on perfection! Elegance, finesse, complexity and ageability are the key attributes of all Mount Mary wines.

Mount Mary “Quintet” is the flagship wine of the estate. From 50 year old vines, this expressive and ethereal red is recognised as one of Australia’s greatest Cabernet styles. It is a medium bodied wine of understated power, distinctive character and an evocative sense of place.

“Stands proudly at the head of the Mount Mary portfolio. Mesmerisingly silky, with a kaleidoscope of fruit and secondary flavours.” 99pts James Halliday 2022

“Deep, bright, youthful red/purple colour, with a reserved but stylish bouquet suggesting cedar cigarbox, red fruits, roses, tobacco and a subtle smoked-meat, charcuterie note. The wine is full-bodied and elegantly-framed, with liberal tannins that are soft and fine yet insistent, adding to its prodigious palate length. Gorgeous flavour of blue and red fruits, floral highlights and wonderful cleansing, refreshing tannins that leave you wanting more. It has lip-smacking, appetising qualities. A stunning wine.” 98/100pts Huon Hooke, The Real Review
