Killibinbin Shiraz 2006

Description
Killibinbin - a small, boutique winery set in the Adelaide Hills region of Australia - was founded by self-confessed wine nuts Wayne Anderson and Liz Blank. After years of working in the hospitality industry, the couple decided to throw caution to the wind and dedicate their lives to producing top-notch wines. They started out with "no vineyard, no grapes, no winery, no winemaker, no money, but loads of gumption!"

Their philosophy about winemaking is equally as simple - "it's all about the fruit" - and they keep to traditional methods. The guys at the RedHeads studio share this approach, so the Killibinbin wines are made here.

Gentle, patient winemaking draws extraordinary colour and texture from the hand-picked Shiraz … you'll find vanilla and oak spice, chocolaty, blackberry fruit, coffee notes - so much going on. Silky, silky tannins and a mile-long finish … little wonder Australian wine expert James Halliday gave it a fantastic 92 points. We think you'll love it too!
