Kilikanoon Latest Packs

Here are 6 exceptional white wines including a Vermentino rated 97pt by James Halliday -making it his equal 6th highest rated white out of 1779 2022 vintage white wines! Plus, Grant Burge’s delicious, trophy-winning Pearl SB, fresh off its trophy in the Royal Adelaide Wine Show. There’s Trophy Winning Margaret River SSB, cracking 95pt Kilikanoon Meymans Riesling, and plenty more besides.

Every now and then a plan comes together. This time, it’s the creation of a reasonably priced Cab dozen which includes Winestate Magazine’s Cabernet of the year! And not just one bottle, we’ve managed to fit 4 bottles of it into this pack!

You’ll also be getting 4 of Kilikanoon’s sumptuous 95pt Cab, and 4 of Karl’s Scepter’s 94pt, complex and cedary Coonawarra Cab. Finally, we’ve managed to include a bot of Yaldara’s Grand Cab Shiraz, a 96pt, $200 a bottle, Barossa stunner!

Just the good stuff here for less than $25 a bottle. These have all picked up 95 points or more somewhere and deservedly so.

The Brothers at War picked up a Gold medal and was just pipped for a Trophy at the Adelaide Show. Metala’s ‘1891’ Cab just scored 95 from Kim Brebach who called it a powerhouse and worth every penny of its asking price.

The Lienert Shiraz is made by former Penfolds St Henri growers and has exceptional clarity and depth of fruit. Kim Brebach gave it 95 as did Ray Jordan who called it exquisitely poised, with driving intensity, an excellent wine.

The Cutis Small Batch sports 96pts. and is old vine, black fruited, full tilt, McLaren Vale Shiraz.

Finally, the Yaldara Grand also has 2x96 and a 95’er and is incredible- mixing black fruited power with a elegance which makes it something very special indeed.

Love Kilikanoon reds? Love old vine McLaren Shiraz? This may be the pack for you.

3 bottles each of Kilikanoon Meymans Shiraz and the Meymans Shiraz Cab, both of which offer concentrated, ripe fruits, complexity and a sprinkle of the ‘fairy dust’ Kilikanoon seem to find somewhere in the winery when they are brewing up the good stuff.

Plus, 6 bottles coming your way of Curtis Small Batch, old vine 21 Shiraz. This might be our most reordered wine of the last coupl’a months and while the 96 points from a wine writer is a handy and deserved accolade, those repeat orders really tell the story of how stunning this wine is.

6 amazing Grenache. 2 vintages of Heirloom Alcala- one of which won the Decanter Trophy as best Grenache in the world, plus the 21 vintage Alcala which Halliday scored 95. Both are magnificent. There’s Dandelion’s Treasure Trove Grenache which the Halliday Wine companion describes as having both sublime fruit and (a supportive) structural latticework. There’s Brothers at War Peacekeeper Grenache which was just pipped for a trophy at the Adelaide Wine Show. Also, Kilikanoon’s magnificent 1946 plantings Walton’s Grenache, a $96 a bottle, full throttle stunner, and finally the Lienert Sieben Klon Grenache – the Grenache us windirecties have ordered more of to take home than any other this year. This is the best Grenache pack we’ve ever put together.

Sometimes you just want a red with a bit of experience under its belt- still offering the vivacious fruit of youth but with the rough edges knocked off, the fruit if anything more vibrantly on show thanks to the more harmonious structure underpinning it. So here’s a collection of pearlers, counting amongst their number are wonderful wines from Dandelion, Heirloom, Mitchell, Jeanneret, Kilikanoon, Chateau Bernot from Bordeaux, and more. All lovely, we promise!

Here’s a dozen Shiraz from the Barossa, the Clare Valley and McLaren Vale, with a 95-point Clare Shiraz, 95 pointers from McLaren Vale and a trio of Shiraz made by former Penfolds winemaker Oliver Crawford.

We’ve also included a bonus bottle of Yaldara’s Grand Cuvée, which Sam Kim has just rated at 96 points, saying ‘This is superbly ripe and perfumed with black/blueberry, vanillin oak, warm spice and mocha notes on the nose. The powerfully concentrated palate delivers outstanding weight and opulence, together with velvety texture and fine-grained tannins, making it gratifying and immensely appealing.’ At its best: now to 2039.
