Coonawarra, Limestone Coast, South Australia, Australia
New Release Alert! This bottle of Katnook Estate Prodigy Shiraz comes from the outstanding 2012 vintage. This vintage is thought to be one of the best for Coonawarra in South Australia. It's in the 'excellent' category in the Langton's Classification of Australian wine and was given 96 points from James Halliday. RRP $100.
It's a deep maroon colour on the eye with a nice warmth on the nose - aromas of black plums, peppery spice and dark chocolate covered liquorice. It's a hearty wine on the palate, full of depth and flavour - blackboy plums, anise and cassis stood out for me. It's juicy with supple tannins and an extremely long finish. I could see the Starks or Lanisters sitting round drinking this - a definite winter warmer that'll go well with hearty, meaty medieval type dishes.
All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective & always evolving, so make sure you drink what you enjoy! #gifted #tcweekdaywine #tctastingnotes
