'Black Label' Cabernet Sauvignon, which was first vintaged in 1954, has evolved markedly over the decades. It is arguably Australia's most recognised Cabernet Sauvignon, and has more than any other, helped define Coonawarra. The wine is matured in new and seasoned French oak for 12 to 18 months. A classic Coonawarra Cabernet with pristine dark berry/ cassis aromas, fine grained tannins and underlying savoury nuances, it develops into a rich, chocolaty wine with age. In a super vintage, this wine can look astonishingly like a 2nd or 3rd growth Bordeaux with its pure cassis aromas and cedary complexity.

Another string to their 'Single Vineyard' bow, Wynns reinvested in the Child's vineyard in 2009 - elevating the fruit there from its traditional supporting role in other premium releases (including John Riddoch and Black Label) to having a dedicated bottling of its own.

Wynns Coonawarra Estate Single Vineyard Messenger Chardonnay is an inaugural release from the Messenger Vineyard. The vineyard is loacted in the cooler southern part of Coonawarra’s Terra Rossa, the wine crafted with hand-picked fruit and whole-bunch pressing for purity and finesse. The 2024 vintage offers enticing aromas and flavours of white peach, nectarine, fresh pear, and cashew, complemented by subtle dried honey, gun flint, and nutty French oak, all balanced by a refreshing citric acidity and a creamy, textured palate.

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 Shiraz reflects its terra rossa origins and enduring pedigree. After four years of ageing, the wine shows greater harmony and polish, with its structure and balance reinforcing its reputation as a reliably cellar-worthy classic that continues to reward patience.

The Wynns J Riddoch Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 from Australia is a true representation of the renowned Coonawarra region. In the glass, it displays a deep ruby red hue, with a slight purple tinge at the rim. The nose is filled with an intense bouquet of blackcurrant, ripe plum, and dark chocolate, perfectly balanced with subtle hints of vanilla and cedar. On the palate, this full-bodied wine exudes rich and complex flavors of dark berries, black cherry, and a touch of mint, intermingled with notes of tobacco and spice. The fine-grained tannins and well-integrated oak provide a smooth and lingering finish. This vintage truly showcases the exceptional quality of the Wynns Coonawarra Estate, making it a must-try for any Cabernet Sauvignon lover. Enjoy it now or cellar for the next 5-7 years.
