Style:
Powerful Reds
Description:
Bright, crimson red with youthful purple hues, this is a very fragrant wine showing perfumes of fresh berries and spicy oak on the nose. On the palate, it has flavours of currants, mint and tea leaf with finesse and length from the French oak. Time in the bottle has allowed the warm, generous fruit, the spicy oak and elegant tannins to knit together well and the result is a beautifully balanced wine with tremendous depth and length. This wine is a blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and a touch of 10% Merlot from the Clare Valley here the varieties were matured separately in barriques, of which 35% was new French oak, for 18 months.Mount Horrocks Wines is operated by proprietor/winemaker Stephanie Toole, who restricts production to approximately 4,500 cases per annum in order to achieve her aims of quality and single vineyard expression. Stephanie describes her wines as 'essentially hand made food wines with emphasis on structure as well as generous fruit flavours'. 50% of fruit used in Mount Horrocks wines is estate grown, the rest is sourced from highly respected Watervale growers Peter and Yvonne Peglidis, who produce the highest quality un-irrigated fruit.
