K E V I N A R N O L D
The single label Kevin Arnold Shiraz is a personal expression of the spice and mocca characters this grape shows in the Helderberg - Stellenbosch vineyards. Beautifully soft and velvety tannins make for a great and memorable glass of wine.
Kevin Arnold is a single label brand that was first released in 1999 with the 1998 Kevin Arnold Shiraz. Each vintage is dedicated to one of the Ord and Arnold children by carrying their name on the label.
