2004 Kilikanoon Killerman's Run Cabernet Sauvignon

A superb fully ripened Cabernet.

Saturated black, purple colour with deep black, purple hue. Top note of cedar, followed by blackcurrant, violets, cassis and spice, finishing with a liquorice allsorts end note. Generous palate flavour. Confectionary, blackcurrant and spice are supported by fine, dry but perfectly balanced tannins. Very long aftertaste of confectionary, spice and blackcurrant.
Cellar 4-5 years (2010-2011)
Alc/Vol: 15.5%

The 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon Killerman’s Run could be inserted in a tasting with $75-100 Napa Cabernet Sauvignons and easily hold its own. This beautiful 100% Cabernet Sauvignon was aged in old 300 litre French hogsheads for 22 months before being bottled with neither fining nor filtration. Its dense purple colour is followed by a sweet perfume of creme de cassis, tar, blackberries, oak, and cedar. It should drink well for at least a decade.
