The wine's initial aroma reveals a cohesive balance of violet and white pepper notes, augmented by light undertones of rose petals on the palate. A medium-bodied wine with a smooth, rounded texture, it shares a similar profile with Gigondas from a single vineyard Grenache. The conclusion is moderate, with a brief, yet satisfying, lingering quality. However, the wine ultimately falls short in terms of variation, resulting in a predictable, if pleasant, enjoying experience.

Profound experience, as always, with the 2008 Clonakilla Shiraz Viognier. The intricacy of its personality is slowly unfolding, much like a full bodied tapestry. A 2-hour decanting process allowed the aromatic nuances to mature, yielding a smoky, musky perfume with a understated spicy background flavor - a quintessential Burgundian character. On the palate, the tannins are remarkably smooth, with a polished smoothness that gives way to a brooding red fruit profile that gradually evolves from sweet to savory. The follow through is firm yet refined, with a pleasing tannic presence.
Xerach
Fine wine with impeccable balance, floral and M-bodied, with a fantastic long lingering aftertaste. in contrast not as rich as the prior bottle, it remains enjoyable, albeit slightly less than the prior experience.

Clonakilla Shiraz Viognier is praised for its rich, full-bodied character with floral, spicy, and fruity notes. Many appreciate its smooth tannins and elegant finish, while some find it lacks complexity. The wine's balance of Shiraz and Viognier adds a unique floral nuance, though opinions vary on its aging potential. Overall, it's a well-regarded wine with a distinctive profile that appeals to many, despite occasional criticism of predictability.
This Clonakilla Shiraz-Viognier is a classic example of Australian winemaking at its finest. On the nose, aromas of ripe black fruits and pepper are complemented by subtle hints of purple flowers and oak. On the palate, velvety tannins and a rich, complex structure combine to make this a truly memorable experience. Bold, yet balanced, this is a wine that can be enjoyed now for its effortless opulence but also has the potential to age gracefully for 20 years to come. Enjoy with grilled meats or a hearty stew.
