Score 97/100 · Drink 2007-2032, Jay S Miller, Wine Advocate, Oct 2007

The 2005 Shiraz “Attunga 1865” is sourced from ungrafted vines planted in the Clare Valley in 1865. It spent 25 months in 100% new French oak hogsheads and was bottled unfined and unfiltered. Opaque purple/black, it reveals an ethereal bouquet of crushed rocks, acacia flowers, espresso, mocha, black cherry, and blackberry. This leads to a powerful, intense, yet elegant wine with a very long, seamless finish. This beautifully balanced effort will excite tasters over the next 25 years. Kilikanoon’s winemaker is the talented Kevin Mitchell. The house specialty is Shiraz but Mitchell does equally well with Riesling, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Grenache. Importers: Peter Weygandt, Weygandt-Metzler, Unionville, PA; tel. (610) 486-0800; Michael Opdahl, Joshua Tree Imports, Duarte, CA; Tel: (626) 358-6600
