KRONDORF The Honorary Cabernet Sauvignon, Barossa Valley

Tanunda's annual Kingship Competition was a highly prized event in South Australia. With fears of invasion and world conflict during the late 19th and early 20th Centuries, the Tanunda Rifle Club (1856-1940) promoted skills of bearing arms and marksmanship.

2015 ’Pantelis’ Cabernet Sauvignon The Pantelis Cabernet Sauvignon is our signature wine and bears the name of the family patriarch. Pantelis Zachopoulos (1927-1998) immigrated to Australia from Greece in 1966 with his wife Olga and four children. His diverse agricultural knowledge was passed onto his children Michael, Nicholas and myself [Zissis]. In 1998 a few months before his passing we purchased and began establishing our vineyard in the Barossa Ranges. I decided to make this wine in his honor as a token of our appreciation for everything he has taught us. The wine has dark rich fruits, plum and blackcurrant with a touch of typical Cabernet herbaceousness on the nose. The palate is long and full with lovely dark chocolate, Mocca and cassis favours.

Classic Cabernet through and through — think rich cassis, hints of mint chocolate and a touch of tobacco leaf.

Cassis, black currant, licorice, mint and earthy tones. Ripe dark fruit flavours dominate the palate. Fine even tannin profile offers structural support and maintains length
