Kilikanoon has travelled in the fast lane since winemaker Kevin Mitchell established it in 1997 on the foundation of 6ha of vines he owned with father Mort. With the aid of investors, its 80 000-dozen production comes from over 300ha of estate-owned vineyards, and access to the best grapes from a total of 2266ha across SA. Between 2013 and early ’14 all links between Kilikanoon and Seppeltsfield were ended; the sale of Kilikanoon’s share in Seppeltsfield, together with the sale of Kilikanoon’s Crowhurst Vineyard in the Barossa Valley, led to the purchase by Kilikanoon of the winery which it had previously leased, and purchase of the Mount Surmon Vineyard. The small batch Mr Hyde wines are produced from individual vineyards/blocks in the Clare Valley.
