2021 Reserve Durif

Bold & Robust Durif is Rutherglen’s own, first planted here in 1906 it has been made in many styles. This is a modern take on the variety with softer tannins and fresh fruit flavours that is more approachable as a younger wine Deep purple in colour with a palate of blood plums, liquorice and dark chocolate with strong tannins giving the finish definition and length. Our estate-grown Durif is aged in selected oak providing spice and smoky notes and a structured backbone to carry the fruit and tannins. Displaying deep, dark fruit flavours with backbone and finesse, this wine is a fitting tribute to fifth-generation winemaker, Norman Killeen, who had the fortitude to guide S&K through many decades of trials and triumphs. 14.9% alc/vol - 8.8 std drinks
