Bin 128 Coonawarra Shiraz is an intriguing counterpoint to the warm-climate Bin 28 Shiraz. Showcasing fruits soured from unique terra rossa soils of Coonawarra – a region that exemplifies the perfume, transparency and unique seductive nature of cool-climate reds. Elegant, finely structured and deeply expressive, this wine will reward cellaring for decades.

Created in 1962, Penfolds Bin 128 is a regional wine that reflects the unique climate and growing conditions of South Australia’s Coonawarra district and the relatively elegant style of cool-climate Shiraz. From the 1980 vintage, French oak replaced American, highlighting the pepper, spice and floral characteristics that define this style. Since this time, greater attention to fruit flavour ripeness has structurally resulted in a more complete and complex wine style.

Dense, but fresh. An elegant expression of Coonawarra Cabernet. Aromatics of anise, mulberry and violet. There’s luscious black liquorice on the palate with layers and layers of silky mouth-coating tannins and a real finesse to the palate shape. The best of the best from an incredibly strong vintage for Cabernet.

Bottled as Orlando St Hugo from the first release in 1980 until 2001. In 2002 this iconic wine changed name and was bottled as Jacob's Creek St Hugo until 2011. Since 2012 the wine is simply labelled as St Hugo.

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon reveals exceptional depth, beginning with vibrant aromas of plums, cassis, and delicate violet flowers. On the palate, bright flavours of plums and dark cherries unfold, complemented by rich layers of dark chocolate, bay leaves, star anise, and dried tobacco leaf, creating a beautifully complex and captivating profile.Well integrated tannins provide just the right amount of structure, guiding the wine to a smooth, focused finish that lingers on the palate. The ideal growing conditions in 2021 allowed the grapes to ripen slowly and evenly, resulting in a wine of perfect balance, depth, and complexity. Ready to enjoy now, this Cabernet Sauvignon also shows excellent aging potential, promising further refinement with time.

Wynns is the proud custodian of many of the great vineyard sites along Coonawarra’s Terra Rossa strip, and each year we select one vineyard to highlight the individuality of the site. In 2023, we chose a young planting from the O’Deas 12.81 vineyard, located to the north of the winery, which was farmed by the O’Deas family until 1966 before being later sold and established as vineyard. The Terra Rossa soil here is dark reddish-brown, with moderate depth to limestone and an average elevation of 57.5 metres, and the current plantings are vine selections from our highly prized Childs vineyard, established on rootstocks. The 2023 season proved challenging, yet the diligence of both vineyard and winemaking teams delivered high-quality, medium-bodied wines, with vineyards planted on well-drained Terra Rossa soils achieving the strongest results.

A Bordeaux-esque expression that marries that classic Bordelaise blend (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, Cabernet Franc) with Terra Rossa character. Pretty, aromatic, and fresh, the O’Deas red blend hails from a single vineyard: the O’Deas 3.13 – although the Wynns team refer to it affectionately as ‘The Hobbit’, due to the short stature of the vines and their wide ‘feet’ (roots). This is an inaugural release for Wynns. Every year, the Coonawarra legends select one parcel of wine to bottle as a single vineyard special. This year’s bottle is a true field blend. With lavender and menthol on the nose, alongside light anise and blackberry, it is fresh and aromatic. This has the pedigree and deliciousness to go the distance.
