✨ Tekniske specifikationer
The Kilikanoon Attunga Mataro is sourced from the historic Attunga Vineyard in the Clare Valley, home to some of the oldest producing Mataro (Mourvèdre) vines in the world, planted in 1865. The name 'Attunga' translates to 'high place' in local Indigenous dialect, referencing the vineyard's elevated, cool-breeze-swept site. These ancient, dry-grown, ungrafted vines yield tiny, highly concentrated berries. Traditional winemaking techniques, including open-top fermentation and basket pressing, followed by aging in seasoned French oak hogsheads, preserve the unique heritage of this fruit. The resulting wine is a profound expression of Clare Valley history, offering a dark, brooding profile rich with black fruits, wild game, earthy spice, and a powerful, age-worthy tannic structure.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Kilikanoon blev grundlagt i 1997 af vinmageren Kevin Mitchell og ligger i den naturskønne Clare Valley i South Australia. Vingården henter sine druer fra historiske, lavtydende gamle vinstokke fordelt over en række forskellige mikroklimaer og jordbundstyper, og huset er dedikeret til at skabe vine med enestående kraft, præcision og regional autenticitet. Kilikanoon har opnået stor international anerkendelse for sine dybt koncentrerede, strukturerede rødvine – heriblandt især flagskibene Oracle Shiraz og Prodigal Grenache – side om side med krystalklare, gemmeværdige Clare Valley Riesling-vine.
