Superbe vin blanc frais doté d'un énorme potentiel de garde. Robe brillante jaune paille profond avec de fines larmes. Joli premier nez floral avec du zeste de citron et de fines épices orientales. Texture incroyablement pure pleine de raffinement avec de la minéralité et une superbe acidité, parfaite évolution en bouche qui s'étire longuement sur un mélange de notes exotiques et minérales dans la finale. Vin d'apéritif parfait avec des fruits de mer crus, des petits légumes primeurs, des asperges froides ou pochées et de petits fromages (de chèvre) frais. T° de service: 10°C.
It all started in London, my first time living away from the family in New Zealand, working by day, taking in shows at the West End and seeking out fine European wine, at night. From there I turned to the blue skies of Perth, and a life revolving around wine.
Wine then became the focus of my work; managing a fine wine store which led to wine distribution and starting my own wine business.
I moved to South Australia in 1992, and within months, I purchased a tiny winery operation. Originally with real ‘cottage industry’ feel, Mount Horrocks Wines has remained tiny in production, yet bold in its approach.
Over the past 27 years I have shifted from purchasing all grapes to planting my own vineyards, becoming 100% estate grown and the entire wine production Australian Certified Organic (ACO)
And by bold, I mean it hasn’t stopped there – with my vineyards hand-tended, all fruit carefully hand-picked and winemaking hands-on, I avoid the need for wine finings, meaning the wines are also vegan and vegetarian friendly.
