2020 Kilikanoon Killerman’s Run Cabernet Sauvignon

Established in 1997, Kilikanoon has established a reputation for producing world class, iconic Shiraz from vineyards located in the Barossa & Clare Valley. Winemaker Kevin Mitchell also produces more budget priced offerings, producing wines that offer ‘Killer Value’ under the Killerman’s Run label, with fruit now being sourced from entirely low yielding Clare Valley vineyards.
Matured for 16 months in new and used French oak hogsheads. Dense midnight black dark red colour with a dark red black tinged hue. Elevated blackcurrant aromas infused with a mix of tobacco and bay leaf are trailed by some dried herb, black olive and dusty cedar notes. Rich and generously weighted the medium to full bodied palate is flooded with ripe blackcurrant and mulberry fruits. Excellent concentration with cedary tobacco characters, black olive and spicy bay leaf infusions adding further interest. Sturdy fine grained tannin structure with a long, slightly firm yet well endowed finish.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
Alc. 14.5%
