Place

Harvested from premium vineyards throughout the Clare Valley, bunches are handled to develop the unique characters of each block. The Kilikanoon vineyards span all three valleys that make up the distinctive environment of the Clare Valley region.

Vintage Conditions

Welcomed winter rains in 2023 well prepared the vines for a long 2024 season. An early spring warm snap gave way to a cool, dry summer in 2024. These conditions slowed the ripening of the grapes. With the later picking days in the cooler conditions, the grapes were rich in flavours and held their bright natural acidities. These factors were ideal for the variety, making it a superb vintage.

Winemaking

With the vineyards spanning the length of the Valley, parcels were able to be harvested at opportune time as the berries developed their rich flavour profile. Crushed into stainless steel tanks, the grapes were allowed to naturally begin fermentation. Once completed, the skins were pressed, and the wine placed into new and seasoned French oak hogsheads for 14 months. Once each batch softened, a blend that shows the refinement and richness of cooler climate shiraz was compiled but selecting barrels out of each batch.
