Description Kilikanoon chief winemaker Pete Warr has achieved the sought-after harmony between the three varieties made famous in France’s southern Rhone. Kilikanoon, established by larger-than-life wine identity Kevin Mitchell in 1997, is the biggest producer of Grenache in Clare. And it is Grenache from one of the highest altitude vineyards in the Clare which leads this Gold-medal-winning triumph. The 93pt Kilikanoon Baudinet Blend Clare Valley Grenache Shiraz Mataro strikes pitch-perfect balance between fruit sweetness and earthy savouriness. Blueberry, cherry and raspberry aromas lift from the glass, leading to juicy red fruit and savoury meat with a sprinkle of spice. Powdery tannins and a long persistent finish. A beauty.
