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.
