Clonakilla O'Riada Shiraz 2019 375ml (Half Bottle)

There's no doubt Clonakilla, across it's entire range of wines, is a compelling proposition. Canberra's best winery, long-time standout of Australia's best Shiraz Viognier, producer of one of Canberra's best Rieslings and arguably the country's best Viognier.

So yep - they have form!

"Blackberry, pepper and spice, orange peel and hazelnuts. Medium-bodied, distinctly nutty and slightly meaty, peanuts and new leather, fine grained husky tannin, slight warmth, running to red and black fruit on a long and meaty finish. Characterful. Lovely wine." 93pts - Gary Walsh - WineFront

"A beautifully fresh and sapid style that has plenty of fresh-ground spice and cracked pepper, across violets, blackcurrants, blackberries and dark plums. The palate adds a little espresso to this array of dark berries and spice. The tannins are smoothly layered and carry a smooth, fleshy finish." Nick Stock - jamessuckling.com

"The main claim to fame for this quality-oriented Canberra district winery is the much-lauded shiraz viognier, which must feature on any list of Australia’s best red wines, but Clonakilla’s other offerings share the estate’s quality ethos. This deeply-coloured straight shiraz shows crushed berries and currants, musky exotic spice and smoky notes on the nose. It’s fleshy and persistent in the mouth, with deep stone fruit and spice flavours, finishing in fine balance with a thread of toasty oak." Ralph-Kyte Powell - The Real Review
