Katnook Founder's Block Shiraz 2008

Coonawarra, South Australia, AustraliaSmoky, tobacco leaf, black olive, peppery, meaty, savoury, black cherry and vanilla aromas with a touch of coffee. Smooth, round, fresh palate with light tannins. Gamey, peppery, blueberry, black olive, tobacco, smoky, vanilla, coffee flavours. A bit tart on the finish but with good fruit and complexity perhaps reflecting its cooler region. Good value.Tasted: 30 January 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
