Place

The Killerman’s Run range of wines are blends from across selected sub regions in the Clare Valley.

Vintage Conditions

Following mild winter temperatures, the vines emerged from their dormancy earlier than usual. This coupled with enduring mild weather during the growing season resulted in slower ripening and elongated time on the vine. These ideal conditions allowed the fruit to ripen evenly and slowly giving natural acid retention while developing varietal character and flavour ripeness at lower sugar levels. It also allowed individual parcels to be selected at the most opportune time as the seasonal rush to harvest was alleviated.

Winemaking

Each individual parcel was vinified separately, and remained so until the final wine was assembled. Maturation in a selection of seasoned French oak hogsheads for twelve months provides a softness and elegance to the silky palate.
