Katnook Estate Prodigy Shiraz 2022

Share

Black pepper and cedar hover over blackberry and black cherry to start. With air, black olive and char-grilled beef add savoury depth. The palate is elegant in fruit, led by blackberry, plum, graphite, and black cherry wrapped in black pepper spice. Firm, grainy tannins and a black-fruit-laced acid line inject freshness, carrying a long finish. Oak plays a supportive role. Classy, elegant yet powerful – a high-quality Coonawarra Shiraz.
