About this product
At Mount Mary they aim to make a Chardonnay of great length that is able to reach a balance between complexity & finesse. Unashamedly Burgundian in concept, local Yarra Valley practices are employed to fully express the unique terroir, including the wine not going through Malolactic fermentation as Mount Mary's cool-climate leaves the fruit with ideal acidity when picked. Matured in 20% new French barriques with the remainder in older barrels and large casks and along with grape solids, this

Has the power and intensity that positively ancient vines (in Yarra Valley terms) and a sacred site makes almost inevitable, the vintage also chipping in. The special quality of Yarra Valley chardonnay is length, on display here in all its glory, the fruit flavours precisely aligned between citrus and stone fruit, the oak ex barrel fermentation and maturation now part of the fabric of the wine.
