The wines are always done with full malolactic fermentation
yet the two wines are quite different in character
Wonderful and substantial wine with a superb velvety finish
the wine is intensely perfumed: graphite and pressed lavender
some raspberry and baked strawberry suggestions
Mount Mary Quintet Cabernet Blend 2016 not on sale The wines are always done46% cabernet sauvignon, 26% merlot, 20% cabernet franc, 5% malbec, 3% petit verdot, separately vinified and matured in French oak (35% new) for 18 22 months before blending and bottling. The ultimate Bordeaux blend, both in theory and reality. Almost butterfly wing transparency, yet compelling intensity and length, the flavours spanning cassis to blueberry to plum and blackcurrant, all with a textured backing. 97PTS and Special Value Wine James
