Proefnotities
Superbe frisse klassewijn met extreme bewaarkracht. Briljante diepstrogele kleur met slanke tranen. Fijn florale bloesems in de aanzet, limoenschil en delicate fijne oosterse specerij. Ongelooflijk pure textuur vol verfijning met mineraliteit en subliem rijpe zuren, ragfijne evolutie in de smaak die erg lang uitdeint met exotische en minerale verweving in de afdronk. Perfecte aperitiefwijn, bij rauwe zeevruchten, natuurlijk bereide primeurgroentjes, rauwe of gepocheerde asperges en verse (geiten)kaasjes. Schenkt°: 10°C.
Wine Story
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.
