Natalie's Score: 87/100

Smooth, full-bodied Australian red wine blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz. This is a seasonal product available close to Halloween given the wine's name, Scream. The back label defines Killibinbin as the ability to take one form and turn it into something bigger that mesmorizes and is hypnotic. Aromas of sweet black plums. Pair with Tootsie Rolls.

Shiraz food pairings: meat lovers pizza, hamburgers, lamb cutlets, black bean soup.

Reviews and Ratings

Jane Staples - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

A full-bodied Cab Sauv/Shiraz blend from Langhorne Creek, South Australia. Garnet red with strawberry, blackberry and cassis aromas jumping out of the glass. But it's not scary, it's delicious and leads to a juicy palate of more ripe berries, mint, eucalyptus, dark chocolate, baking spice and oak. Smooth and velvety in the mouth, mint on the finish. Seasonal availability, so grab a bottle soon. You'll be screaming for more.
