Katnook Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
Colour: Medium depth, bright crimson
Nose: This expressive cabernet sauvignon has a lovely fruit aromatic profile. Dark cherry, classic cassis, mulberry, and blackberry with hints dried herb, chocolate and spicey cedar oak.
Palate: The palate is full and supple with vibrant layers of cassis, mulberry and blackberry fruit along with subtle hints of sage, herbs, and a pleasant earthy and savoury depth. The complex palate is framed with polished, fine-grained tannins, a hall mark of the Coonawarra region.
Food Matching: This Cabernet will go well with rosemary braised lamb shanks, a chargrilled porterhouse with chimichurri sauce or for a vegan alternative, try a rich tomato pasta.
Cellaring Potential: Will age gracefully up to 10 years.
