Wine

Clonakilla T&L Vineyard Block One Shiraz Viognier is sourced from a parcel of vines planted by Tim and Lara Kirk in 1999, right next to the original Clonakilla block at Murrumbateman.

The wine is a tiny individual bottling of one of the many parcels that make up the winery's iconic Shiraz Viognier.

The fruit is harvested from a gentle, north-east facing slope. Most is destemmed, with a portion kept as whole bunches. The Shiraz co-ferments with a small amount of Viognier using wild yeasts.

After fermentation the wine is transferred to new and seasoned French oak puncheons for two years to develop complexity.

Deep red purple, Clonakilla T&L Vineyard Block One Shiraz Viognier is fragrant with rich dark fruit flavours, finely textured tannins and lasting length. Cellaring potential is 12 years.

Another outstanding Clonakilla Shiraz. Cellaring potential is 12 years.
