Place

The Meyman's Riesling is composed from Kilikanoon's diverse vineyard sites across the sub-regions of the Clare Valley - delivering an elegant yet generous take on the classic Clare style.

Vintage Conditions

A dry cool autumn in 2021 lead into good winter rains. Above average spring falls gave way to a very cool, dry summer and autumn 2022. These conditions slowed the ripening of the grapes, resulting in full flavours, good natural acidities, and lower Baume’s (sugar) than previous vintages. Overall conditions were the best they had been for many years, and a rare vintage where quantity is good, and quality exceptional. A stunning vintage for drinkers and collectors alike.

Winemaking

Once harvested, the grapes were placed into the press where they were drained and gently pressed to tank for cold settling. The racked juice was fermented cool for three weeks to retain freshness and delicate aromatics. The finished wine was then stabilised and filtered to ensure clarity and longevity.
