Mount Horrocks

Stephanie Toole bought Mount Horrocks in 1993, restored Auburn's railway station as her cellar door in 1998, and has since built one of Clare Valley's more singular estates: 10 hectares at Watervale's highest point, certified organic and biodynamic, producing just 2,500 cases annually. The Cordon Cut Riesling—a late-harvest style of real concentration—is the headline, but the Nero d'Avola, an early regional experiment, earns its place in the portfolio.
