Mount Mary Pinot Noir 2018

Mount Mary Pinot Noir 2018Mount Mary is one of the iconic wineries of Australia and one of the jewels of the Yarra Valley. Their Pinot Noir is Yarra pinot at its finest, possessed of rare finesse and purity. The wine is typically medium bodied, with fragrant cherry and strawberry aromas and a vibrant, succulent palate of prodigious length. Production is minuscule. "Not a hair out of place, all the boxes with big ticks. A perfumed bouquet with rose petals and tantalising hints

creating shape and line through the middle palate and into the long finish

the valley is home to a significant acreage of grapevines and produces some of Marlborough's best-known Sauvignon Blanc

A spectacular wine
