Aged in 100% American oak, and bottled unfiltered (as are all Kilikanoon's reds), the 2000 Shiraz Covenant (from older vines in a cooler section of Clare Valley) exhibits sweet leather, herb, black cherry, and blackberry fruit, medium to full body, and a rich style. While neither as exuberant nor as strikingly aromatic as the Cabernet, it is more European in style. Enjoy it over the next 7-12 years.
