TASTING_NOTES_HEADING_BLACK

Tim Kirk agrees with me that 2009 was a special vintage for his flagship, but from a winemaking perspective, says he has done nothing especially different with the wine. It's my guess, then, that something has happened in the vineyard, perhaps within the significant portion of the vineyard that remains relatively young. Have the vine roots penetrated a new, rich layer of subsoil structure? Or might it be a result of the ageing of the vines themselves? I'd love to know. Meantime, I very much doubt that this exceptional wine is a once-off. Jeremy Oliver - 98 points and Wine of the Year 2011

Clonakilla

It has been a remarkable journey for Clonakilla. When John Kirk planted the first vines in 1971 he had no idea that his vineyard would one day be celebrated as one of the best in the country. Along the way there have been trials and tribulations as well as moments of unprecedented success. Over time something important has become clear: Murrumbateman and Shiraz are one of those rare combinations in the world of wine that can produce something truly exciting.
