2022 Kilikanoon Killerman's Run Grenache Shiraz Mataro

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.
A blend of 50% Grenache, 40% Shiraz and 10% Mataro matured in seasoned French oak hogsheads for a period of 15 months. Deep dark red black colour with a dark red hue. Elevated dark raspberry, red liquorice and dark cherry scents stream out of the glass trailed by some subtle inky earth, provincial herb and pepper notes. Rich and succulent the mid weighted palate is awash with dark raspberry, red liquorice, cherry and blueberry fruits. Delicate earth, Herb du Provence and pepper elements lie underneath. Fresh, energetic and fleshy it possesses velvet smooth tannins and finishes long and juicy.
Drink over the next 4-5 years.
