Wynns Coonawarra Estate Single Vineyard Cabernet Franc
The superb Wynns Coonawarra Estate Single Vineyard Cabernet Franc is a debut release, marking the first time the winery has bottled this varietal as a standalone offering. Sourced from the McKillop Vineyard in northern Coonawarra, it features vibrant red fruit flavours of raspberry and violet, supported by fine chalky tannins and aged exclusively in large-format neutral French oak vats for freshness.

Wynns Coonawarra Estate Single Vineyard, Cabernet Sauvignon, O'Deas Release
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.
Wynns Coonawarra Estate O'Deas Single Vineyard Cabernets
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.
