Product Details
About the Estate & details of production; Mort Mitchell is Kilikanoon’s godfather and father to owner and winemaker, Kevin Mitchell. Mort planted the vines which bear his name in the Clare Valley sub-region of Watervale in the early 1970’s. He carefully tended to these vines for over 40 years, and it is his efforts that allow Kilikanoon to produce such a fantastic example of Clare Valley Riesling year on year. The Watervale soils are typified by fertile red brown loams overlying limestone sub layers, soil profiles that lend themselves to growing Riesling of exceptional distinction and character. Made as a blend of three higher altitude Watervale sites, all fruit was hand-picked and sorted with only free run juice used for the final cuvee. Multiple harvests from different blocks gives the winemaking team the ability to capture differing acid and flavour profiles. This allows for the creation of a wine with immense character and a complete organoleptic profile. Each parcel gently pressed to stainless steel and fermented cool for between two and three weeks retains the freshness and vibrancy of the fruit.

Taste; A sublime, long and focused flavour sensation. Fresh kaffir lime, crushed granite, jasmine and honeydew melon permeate and saturate the senses . All of these flavours weave an intricate web across a delicate, minerally acid frame, that lengthens and deepens the finish. A wine to thoroughly enjoy now, yet will greatly reward careful, extended cellaring where the flavours will deepen, evolve, and mature into something quite spectacular.
