✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the cooler, elevated slopes of the Clare Valley, Kilikanoon's Pearce Road Semillon is a compelling testament to a grape variety that, while often overshadowed by Riesling in this region, achieves magnificent heights in the right hands. Sourced from the dedicated Pearce Road vineyard, this wine departs from the strictly stainless-steel style of other Australian regions by incorporating subtle French oak influence. This barrel fermentation and maturation process imparts a beautifully textured mouthfeel, creamy complexity, and subtle nutty undertones to complement the grape's natural vibrant lemongrass, lime leaf, and flinty mineral core. It represents a sophisticated, food-friendly expression of Clare Valley's diverse microclimates.
🍾 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.
