Personalised Mount Horrocks Shiraz 2017 14% 750ml
It is a Semillon that is all layered richness and texture, with some toasty notes awaiting the little butter destined to appear in a couple of years. Acidity provides cleansing balance and length.
Expert Review:
Campbell Mattinson- 93 points, The wine is medium-bodied, spicy, set with fine-grained tannin and lengthy. It’s an exercise in elegance and control, not to mention beauty. It’s tired with mint, run with cherry-plum, lightened by orange and cranberry notes. It’s a lovely wine, with a most promising future.
Mount Horrocks Wines restricts production to approximately 3,500 cases per annum to achieve the highest quality single vineyard wines. All three estate-owned Clare Valley vineyards, totalling ten hectares, are ‘A certified’ by Australian Certified Organic (ACO). Stephanie carefully crafts “essentially hand-made food wines with emphasis on structure as well as generous fruit flavours”. Only estate grown grapes are used and these are hand-picked and gently handled under conditions that ensure the varietal and site-specific flavours in the resultant wine, as well as its organic status, are retained. As no finings have been found necessary the wines are all suitable for vegans and vegetarians. Only the finest French oak barriques are used for those wines spending time in barrel.
Variety: Shiraz/Syrah
