We're delighted to share that our Killerman's Run Shiraz 2020 has been awarded Gold in the Business Class Lounge Red Wine category at the 2026 Cellars in the Sky Awards.
This year marks the 40th anniversary of one of the aviation industry's most respected and enduring wine awards. Established by Business Traveller magazine, the Cellars in the Sky Awards celebrate the best wine programmes offered by airlines for First and Business Class, recognising the standout wines served both in the air and in premium lounges around the world.
Awarded through our partnership with Cathay Pacific, one of the world's leading airlines, the wine received a Gold medal, with judges describing it as:
"Cassis and savoury intensity. Chocolate notes with good fresh tannins..."
Produced in South Australia's acclaimed Clare Valley wine region, Killerman's Run Shiraz is crafted to showcase the generosity, structure and drinkability that have made Clare Valley Shiraz one of Australia's most celebrated wine styles.
The Killerman's Run range is all about delivering exceptional quality and regional character, offering wines that are approachable, expressive and true to their origins. The 2020 Shiraz combines ripe dark fruit flavours with savoury spice, fine tannins and a smooth finish, making it a favourite among both long-time Kilikanoon supporters and those discovering the winery for the first time.
We're incredibly proud to see Killerman's Run Shiraz recognised through our partnership with Cathay Pacific. Having a Clare Valley wine served in a premium international lounge introduces Kilikanoon to travellers from around the world and highlights the quality and diversity of Australian wine on a global stage.
If you'd like to experience Killerman's Run Shiraz for yourself, we invite you to visit Kilikanoon’s Cellar Door, nestled in the heart of the Clare Valley. Alongside our Riesling, Grenache and premium red wines, you'll have the opportunity to discover the wines that continue to earn recognition both in Australia and internationally.
Our cellar door is open 7 days a week, from 11am to 5pm.
We're grateful to Cathay Pacific for their continued support and honoured to be recognised by the Cellars in the Sky Awards in this milestone 40th year.
