Mount Mary

The Mount Mary Vineyard estate wines are premium handcrafted wines produced in limited quantities. They are the result of the season and the vineyard in which they were grown. Each wine captures a sense of time and place. The four Mount Mary Vineyard estate wines are comprised of two blends traditionally grown and made in Bordeaux, France (Quintet and Triolet) and two varieties traditionally grown and made in Burgundy, France (Pinot noir and Chardonnay). These wines reflect our region, vineyard and the season in which they were grown. We believe that each of our estate wines have exceptional ageing and cellaring potential.

Marli Middleton (nee Russell), co-founder of Mount Mary, was the inspiration behind the label in recognition of her enthusiasm for the family to continue the pursuit of new ideas. Marli was an adventurous and fun loving woman and it’s this spirit of hers that we hope shines through in these wines. In 2008, in response to changing environmental conditions and our desire to evaluate new varieties, we began to establish additional vineyard areas at Mount Mary. We chose seven varieties that have been traditionally grown in the Rhone Valley of France and our vision in planting these vines was to continue to explore the potential of our unique site, creating some new and exciting wines. The varieties planted include three white grapes, Marsanne, Roussanne and Clairette and four red grapes, Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsault.

Our Réflexion wines are made entirely from Mount Mary estate grown fruit, primarily from our youngest plantings. The fruit grown on these vines is still developing towards the quality and consistency demanded for our Mount Mary Vineyard estate wines. From time to time, depending on the vintage, we will release limited quantities of red and white wines under the Réflexion label. You are most likely to experience our Réflexion brand in selected restaurants across Australia. Each bottle in our Réflexion range reflects a sense of place and time.
