Winemaker's Bio
Born in New Zealand, Stephanie Toole developed a passion for fine wine while working in London. After moving to Perth in the 1980s, this fascination became the focus of her work, starting her own wine business.
In 1992 Stephanie moved to South Australia and within months, had purchased a tiny winery operation. Originally with real ‘cottage industry’ feel, Mount Horrocks Wines has remained tiny in production, yet bold in its approach.
Typical of so many Australians, Stephanie started life somewhere else, was inspired by the produce of other countries, but now makes wines that she believes are worthy and true expressions of the place where she lives.
