2016 Divinity Fortified Viognier

Kilikanoon Wines

$30.00
A special and highly sought after wine, made only in certain vintages, The Kilikanoon Divinity is sourced entirely from a small plot of Viognier on our Estate owned, Trillian's Hill vineyard, east of Penwortham in the Clare Valley.
  • Winemaking

    Fortified using brandy spirit halfway through ferment, the wine then spends over thirty months ageing in old oak hogsheads to impart further interest and complexity. The locations high altitude of 500 meters requires the fruit to hang well into April before harvesting for it to reach its acclaimed and luscious potential.

    Appearance

    Deep golden straw with a honeyed meniscus.

    Nose

    Hints of honeycomb and toffee swirl around the glass.

    Palate

    Creatively layered and textured, the flavours of toffee, turkish delight and aged walnuts come together in a whirlpool of increasing decadence. Splashes of fruit nuttiness provide added weight and creaminess to the long, sweet palate. Already aged ready to serve, it will continue to improve in the cellar for 12 - 15 years more.
