Katnook 'The Caledonian' 2013

Katnook 'The Caledonian' 2013

The Caledonian is named in honour of canny Scotsman, John Riddoch, founder of the Coonawarra wine region. In 1896, Riddoch made his second vintage in the Katnook woolshed. It is available exclusively at Cellar Door and online.
This blend captures the synergy of Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz with smaller portions of lesser known varieties Tannat and Petit Verdot.  Katnook Estate's last serious blend earned the accolade of the 1987 Jimmy Watson Trophy, when the winemaker blended a Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Wine Profile
Vineyard Notes
Slightly warmer conditions of 2013 and well below average rainfall led to an earlier than usual vintage with red wines that show vibrant fruit with great concentration. Cabernet Sauvignon 55%, Shiraz 35%, Petit Verdot 5%, Tannat 5%
Production Notes
Matured for approximately 14 months in predominantly American oak barrels, 35% of which were new.
Winemaker Notes
Richly layered dark berry fruit and oak. Dark forest berries, mulberry and spiced plum, enhanced with vanillin oak and fine, lingering tannins.
Food Pairing Notes
Beef wellington, an aged Porterhouse steak or wild mushroom and red wine risotto.
