Glenlofty Kilikanoon Wine List

Jeni Port nailed it when she said 'The palate wields fine tannins with impressive style, elevating the peppery aromatics, the punchy maraschino cherry notes, not to mention the discreet savouriness. The choc-vanillin oak is particularly nicely placed, intuitive almost, simply going harmoniously with the wine. We used to treat GSM as simply a nice everyday kind of wine. No more. 96 points.' Has also picked up 3 trophies and a heap of other accolades. A stunning wine. Learn More

A glorious Riesling from one of the great vintages made by one of the Clare’s finest producers. This is a stunning Clare Riesling, built around lemons and limes, offering minerality and brilliant length and intensity. Learn More

A varietally fragrant, medium-bodied, and intensely fruited Cabernet from the Kilikanoon stable. Violets, black cherries, and blackcurrants announce themselves on the nose and then invite themselves in to lie on a plush bed of tannin fluffed atop a selection of gorgeous cedar. A superb Cab from perhaps the Clare Valley's finest producer. Learn More

Whilst 2020 was a challenging growing season and yields were very low, fruit quality and concentration were excellent, even exemplary. There is concentrated black and blue fruit here, along with cedar and spice. The acid is fantastic, playing the perfect underscore to the fruit and giving this wine excellent lift and length. Tannins are fine and firm. Superb to drink now and for the next decade. Learn More

The texture is velvet, the balance is perfect.’ A stunner which you can drink now, or age for up to another dozen years or so. Learn More
