1995 Mount Horrocks Cabernet Merlot WATERVALE, CLARE VALLEY January Release Merlot The Clare Valley has long been regarded primarily as a great white wine region, no doubt due to the success of Riesling. In recent years there has been an upsurge in the respect and status afforded to the red wine produced in the valley. Stephanie Toole at Mount Horrocks has been at the forefront of this movement and this wine is her finest red release to date...... 1997 Mount Horrocks Shiraz WATERVALE, CLARE VALLEY January Release Shiraz Just a few short years ago the Clare Valley was regarded as a fine area to grow grapes, but they made white wine, most notably Riesling.
