Mount Mary 'Triolet' 2016

More open than is usual for this wine – courtesy of the compact 2016 vintage. Ripe, white & yellow stone fruits, some flintiness, mixed with nougat, pecan & almond. There is a beautiful textural element to this year’s Triolet underpinned by some chalky acidity that pushes out to the long, complex finish. The weight sits just right & the dry, savoury aftertaste, makes another glass all too easy. Highly recommended. - Todd Slater, FWC.

65% sauvignon blanc, 25% semillon, 10% muscadelle. Gleaming straw-green; the combination of finesse and intensity is of the highest scale, as is the purity of the fruit expression. This is the vineyard speaking, shaping a blend of sauvignon blanc and semillon (leaving the muscadelle to one side) into a wine like no other. This is all about doing less, the hardest task for a winemaker. Drink to 2029. 97 Points. James Halliday, Halliday's Wine Companion (2018).
