Wynns Coonawarra Estate, founded in 1891, is one of the most historic and respected names in the Coonawarra region, renowned for its consistent production of classic, terroir-driven Cabernet Sauvignon. The estate’s vineyards, planted on the region’s signature terra rossa soils, benefit from a cool maritime climate that lends precision and elegance to the wines. Wynns maintains a strong commitment to sustainable viticulture, with meticulous canopy management, hand harvesting, and low yields ensuring quality fruit.

The 2015 vintage offered near-ideal growing conditions, with a long, cool ripening period that fostered complex flavour development and balanced acidity. After hand selection, the fruit underwent fermentation with native yeasts, and the wine was aged in a combination of seasoned and new French oak barrels to add structure and nuance. The resulting wine delivers classic Coonawarra Cabernet aromas of cassis, blackcurrant, and mint, complemented by subtle cedar, tobacco, and eucalyptus notes. The palate is medium to full-bodied, with finely grained tannins, fresh acidity, and a long, layered finish. Wynns Coonawarra Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2015 is a textbook example of the region’s potential - refined, balanced, and built to develop beautifully over time.
