Product Details

Noted champion of the shiraz-viognier style is Clonakilla’s Tim Kirk. He was one of the first Australians to marry the two when, for the 1992 vintage, he blended shiraz with viognier. There has been much fine-tuning since, but what sets this wine apart is its restraint and a structure that's more medium bodied. It’s a beautifully balanced wine with fine, detailed tannins and that lovely spicy-floral note that viognier brings to the blend. The critics loved it: James Halliday awarded it 98 & Nick Stock, 99 Points.

'This is a shiraz viognier of the highest order with desperate purity of white pepper, whole bunch mixed spice and plum skin, and a super fine, gravelly tannin structure of breathtaking presence, yet unerring finesse. In enduring line, undeviating persistence and sheer, glorious beauty, this vintage sits confidently among the greatest syrahs on earth.' - Tyson Stelzer.

29/6/2022Medium-deep red with a good tint of purple, but not dark. The bouquet is light and lifted, fragrant and fresh, with red and blue berry and spicy as well as foresty nuances, some talcy floral nuances and lots to entertain. The faintest echo of eucalypt forest-floor. In the mouth, it’s at the medium end of full-bodied, the tannins beautifully smooth and well formed so that it's deceptively easy to enjoy already, but no doubt has what it takes to age gracefully.

31/10/2022Bright medium-deep purple-red colour with a lovely fresh young spice, red and blue fruit bouquet, a dazzling display of spices and fruits. An outstanding wine, the fine tannins contributing to a very good backbone and great length. One of the best young wines at the Clonakilla 50th anniversary retrospective.

7/7/2025Good depth of bright translucent purple colour; reserved spicy aromas, the palate deliciously flavoured with concentration and fruit sweetness, there is violet and blackberry, a touch of pepper, a powerful wine of focused intensity and terrific length. Juicy middle surrounded by fine grained balancing tannins. Already has lovely drinkability. Superb shiraz. A riper and more powerful vintage of this wine.
