2015 Mount Mary Réflexion Fumé Blanc
Mount Mary
The vines which bear the fruit for this wine were planted in 2008, on a south-facing slope. The 2015 Réflexion Fumé Blanc is 100% barrel-fermented Sauvignon Blanc. The winemaking methodology follows other Mount Mary white wines, where the fruit is pressed relatively hard to give the wine a phenolic texture. Fermentation is conducted with a high solids component for added complexity, while a higher fermentation temperature (than would be considered typical for Sauvignon Blanc) is encouraged, to give the wine less overt primary fruit and more secondary complexity.
This wine shows aromas of honeysuckle, melon and a hint of passionfruit. The palate is rich with perfectly balanced riper flavours of peach and melon, combined with some more typical Sauvignon Blanc characters of green apple and passionfruit. The acid and phenolic component gives the wine a tremendous chalkiness adding interest and length to the palate. – Sam Middleton, Mount Mary
