A silhouette of the young lady herself, this wine is named in honour of the Collett family matriarch, Mary McTaggart. A lover of all things aromatic, Mary started Woodstock Estate’s flourishing herb garden. The delicately perfumed Riesling grape made her favourite wine, and this scented example comes solely from a small north-facing vineyard on the sandy slopes of the highest part of the estate. Soothed by sea and gully breezes over summer, the fruit is picked in the cool of the night, capturing the fragrant varietal aromas at their peak.

This Riesling has classic lime juice and citrus floral aromas, combined with a balanced and elegant palate. Lean yet juicy and vibrant, the palate is concentrated, tart in youth and refreshingly dry. A great acid line and backbone ensures that this wine will evolve and blossom with age if cellared cool. (Below 20°C)

Description

To capture the essence of McLaren Vale we strive for absolute quality, beginning in our old vineyards through every phase of winemaking to the wines before you, wherever that may be. The WOODSTOCK wine portfolio includes a range of sparkling wines, fresh aromatic whites, opulent yet finely structured reds and finally, an eclectic selection of after-dinner wines.

he majority of our wines are sourced from WOODSTOCK Estate, which lies between McLaren Flat and Blewitt Springs, east of the town of McLaren Vale. Winemaker Scott Collett’s close proximity and deep understanding of these vineyards over many years maintains strict quality benchmarks of maximum flavour and intensity for which the WOODSTOCK Estate is known.

Although not yet certified organic, our vines are treated with minimal impact sprays and no pesticides. We tend our vine canopies by hand, and if required the vines are leaf plucked or crop thinned to ensure even ripening and good concentration of berry flavours.
