(2025) This is Wynns top of the range Coonawarra Shiraz, from their best vineyards on terra rossa soil, and only made in exceptional years. It spent 12 months in French oak barriques and hogsheads, 25% new oak. It's a wine that displays its cooler climate credentials proudly, with just 13.1% alcohol and a very pretty, pure, and seamless aromatic, where ripe black fruits melt into vanilla and only the merest a touch of roasted coffee, some kirsch and violet lift in the picture too. In the mouth that impression of effortless grace continues. There is plenty of substance with juicy black fruit and underpinnings of spicy oak, but the stripe of firm, gripping tannin into the finish says this wine needs some time. Acidity is fresh and balanced, and though approachable now, this is a wine to cellar for a decade or more.
