Over 150 years ago the vines for this wine were planted in the Clare valley. It’s not often you come across vines that old, in fact these were amongst the earliest years of plantings in Australia. Pretty neat, hey? Not only have these vines essentially become one with the terroir in that time, but Kilikanoon crops at super low yields to achieve small, intense berries. You’ll see that immeasurable flavour immediately- beyond anything you’ll get just from age or good winemaking. It’s deep red with crimson hues, and all the prowess to follow through. New and old french oak has given this baby structure and intensity; lifted dark fruits, fresh licorice and compote entertain the palate while the vanilla and light spice do the supporting work behind the scenes. It’s sincere yet subtle, immense yet composed. This will not disappoint you, even for decades to come.
