Wynns Coonawarra Estate

Privileged to own the longest-established vineyards in the region, first planted by John Riddoch in 1891, Wynns Coonawarra Estate still resides in the fabled triple-gabled winery that he built on Memorial Drive. Large-scale production has not prevented Wynns (an important part of TWE) from producing excellent wines covering the full price spectrum from the bargain-basement to the deluxe. Even with steady price increases, Wynns offers extraordinary value for money and its Black Label Cabernet Sauvignon is a mainstay of many Australian cellars. Investments in rejuvenating and replanting key blocks – and skilled winemaking – have resulted in wines of far greater finesse and elegance. -JAMES HALLIDAY
