Taste Description

Taste Description

2019 Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet

Colour

Crimson with purple hues at the core

Nose

Generous aromatics, equal parts sweet and savoury notes. Each varietal brings something intriguing to the party. Perfumed baking spices abound with raspberry coulis, dark cherry Danish and castor sugar dusting. A hint of bergamot provides an Earl Grey-esque allure. There is a certain plushness to the nose that is enriched by the presence of exotic spice.

Palate

Oak derived spice makes its presence felt by way of Hungarian paprika and celery salt. There are layers of flavour, the sweetness of hazelnut chocolate balanced by savoury pan-seared pancetta, sandalwood and salted nori. A fine line of acid and talcy tannins make for a supple and plush mouthfeel.

About Koonunga Hill

When the 1976 Koonunga Hill Shiraz Cabernet was first released it created an expectation for the future well beyond its modest price point. First offered to customers at $1.69 a bottle, today this vintage can fetch over $250 at auction, illustrating the strength of its reputation with wine collectors and drinkers.
