Wynns Coonawarra Estate was founded by pioneer John Riddoch who planted vineyards in 1891, recognising the potential of the rich, red Terra Rossa soil and the long ripening season of Coonawarra's cool southerly climate. The Estate's famous triple-gabled winery was completed in 1896 and purchased by the Wynn family in 1951.
An inviting nose of bright red berries and black olive combines with subtle earthy notes. Cassis, plush dark fruit and gentle spice fill the palate and the fine grained Coonawarra tannins supply seamless length to this classic Wynns blend.
