KilikanoonKavel's Flock Barossa Valley Shiraz
About this product
Pastor Kavel was an inspirational leader and led the exodus of German Lutherans to South Australia in the 1840's. Kavel's flock contributed richly to South Australia's development and created wine dynasties across the state.This Clare Valley Shiraz displays all the hallmarks of Kavel's courageous and pioneering spirit, encompassing ripe dark berry and fresh red cherry notes, along with the fine dusty tannins the region is famous for. Back in the 1840s, Pastor Kavel led the Lutherans on their journey to the Barossa Valley to embark on a new life of religious freedom. From that mass migration a dynasty began. This Kilikanoon Shiraz, exclusive to Dan Murphy's, pays homage to this great history with a red of supreme power and concentration. Robust flavours of raspberry and earthen spice completed by subtle, ripe tannins give the wine balanced complexity and a nice length of flavour. Kavel's Flock is a continuation of an immense Kilikanoon legacy that has recently seen it awarded the James Halliday Winery of the Year for 2013.

A wine that exudes what so many wine lovers love about the Barossa, all that Germanic gemutlichkeit - friendliness - that flows and takes hold. Black fruits and blue, a raft of showy spice and Aussie bush notes. So deliciously sweet-fruited to taste, so together on the palate, such a smart wine at an equally smart price.

Plum and blackberry jam in a glass. Liquorice, newly tanned leather, cherry cola, hints of smoky oak. A saturated palate of impressive flavours. Delicious.
