Mount Horrocks Cordon Cut Riesling 2003
Early-drinking and concentrated dessert wine with penetrative, if slightly cooked and varnishy aromas of lemon and pineapple. Forward and toasty, it’s smooth and luscious, but its initial viscosity and juiciness falls away to a slightly leaner, tighter finish than usual.

Winery
Mount Horrocks
Mount Horrocks is a long-established small Clare Valley producer whose range includes a delightfully fresh and faintly smoky barrel-fermented Semillon and the popular regional dessert wine benchmark of Cordon Cut Riesling. While its shapely Riesling is typical of the region, the Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon each delivered finely crafted wines from the 2013 vintage.
