Tapanappa Whalebone Vineyard Cabernet Shiraz 2019

This 2019 Cabernet Shiraz is quite a different beast from the Merlot Cabernet Franc from the same vintage showing more poise and finesse with red currant, cedar and earthy tones prominent. Again a strong heart of tannins is the key feature, and a firm drying finish. Young and tight rigth now with potential to improve in bottle.
