Information:

Founded in 1997

Winemaker and proprietor Kevin Mitchell purchased the property of the same name in the hamlet of Penwortham in South Australia's picturesque Clare Valley. Hailing from a long line of wine grape growers, Kevin now had the opportunity to turn the vision of creating his own wine brand into a reality.

Kevin's father Mort Mitchell has been a defining influence, planting and tending to Kilikanoon's Golden Hillside suite of vineyards including the famed Mort's Block, for over 40 years. Kevin's fascination with terroir is a result of years spent playing and eventually working in these vineyards alongside his father. The first Kilikanoon branded wines from the 1997 vintage were four single vineyard wines, each from Kevin and Mort's vineyards. These were the 'Oracle' Shiraz, 'Prodigal' Grenache, 'Blocks Road' Cabernet and 'Mort's Block' Watervale Riesling.

Wine making:

The single parcels of Riesling fruit were picked over the course of a week at ideal stages and were loaded directly into the press. The iridescent free run juice was then allowed to drain and held separately, prior to the gentle pressing of the grapes. Settled naturally, the clarified juice was allowed to warm and commence fermentation. The fermentation continued at low temperatures to retain the fruit intensity, delicate aromas and fine acid line.

Description:

Nose: Complex and intense array of Meyer lemon, Tahitian lime and white flowers, combined with fine chalk and hints of fresh ginger.

Description: Concentrated and juicy waves of lemon and lime juice coat the palate. Hints of talc, jasmine and refreshing mineral-like acidity drive the flavour through a long and lingering finish. A wine that can be enjoyed now and will also appreciate years in the cellar to slowly evolve.
