Cherry and chocolate, blueberries, violets, tobacco, pencils, baking spice, a light mint perfume. It’s medium-bodied, so fine and ‘minerally’, with succulent graphite tannin, cool fresh acidity to balance, quite some mouth-perfume, and kind of ferrous too, and the length is superb, finishing bright and steely, redcurrant and cranberry carries in the aftertaste. Superb. Such energy and class. There’s something about (Mount) Mary.

The Quintet stands as the winery's flagship, and the 2022 captures that with both hands. It boasts a ripe and plush nose with inviting aromas of dark cherry, cedar and violets, complemented by rich blackcurrant and a delicate hint of bay leaf. On the palate, the wine unfolds with intense depth, supported by robust graphite tannins that lend a refined structure. Layers of fennel and star anise add a sophisticated spice, enhancing its complexity. Each sip offers an effortless journey through its well-integrated components, achieving excellent balance. This wine truly captivates the Mount Mary spirit with its poised sophistication and seamless harmony. It has a long life ahead.
