Our vision for the limited release Prodigy is to handcraft a timeless Coonawarra Shiraz to stand in company with the finest in the world. This exclusive wine is released only from vintages when a superior quality is achieved. Crafted with the most meticulous attention to detail, it is a seamless blend of intense fruit and oak maturation.

The Caledonian is exclusive to Cellar Door and online.  The wine showcases the synergies of select Shiraz and Cabernet parcels from our Estate.

A rich powerful Coonawarra Shiraz, this exclusive wine is released only from vintages when superior qualitly is achieved. This is the 15th vintage release and will age gracefully up to 20 years.

This blend is an exceptional wine. It captures the unique synergy achieved by combining the traditional varieties of Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz with smaller portions of lesser known varieties Tannat and Petit Verdot.
A philosophy of blending at Katnook Estate has previously achieved the accolade of the 1987 Jimmy Watson Trophy, when the winemaker blended a Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon.
 

18th VINTAGE RELEASE: Katnook Prodigy is created from small parcels of premium Shiraz grapes, sourced from the estate’s terra rossa vineyards that consistently produce exceptional fruit with outstanding depth of flavour and firm tannin structures. 
2017 was a return to a more  traditional Coonawarra vintage with a cool growing season and long, mild summer. Harvest was later than in  recent years; ideal conditions in the  lead up produced outstanding Shiraz fruit with vibrant flavours and  excellent regional expression.
