Vintage :: 2005 vintage followed a long dry and cooler than average summer. This ideal growing season initiated earlier than expected and above average maturities.
The near ideal conditions produced outstanding varietal flavours, very good fruit ripeness and rich, generous palate structures. Prodigy is made from grapes harvested off a small vineyard site that has consistently produced fruit of outstanding depth of fruit flavour and colour.
Nose :: A rich and complex array of fruit, oak and subtle maturation aromas. Attractive ripe raspberry & plum fruit with sweet anis and licorice spice tones. Sweet vanillin oak and subtle light roast coffee bean adds complexity to fruit aromas.
Palate :: An opulent palate structure, richly layered with ripe fruit, oak and maturation flavours that are seamlessly combined. Rich raspberry and plum fruit with sweet anis and licorice spices and lingering pepper are a feature. Soft and fine lingering tannin are in harmony with the palate structure.
