Description
Wynns ‘Old Vines’ Shiraz is a superb example of Coonawarra’s cool climate style made predominantly from Wynns’ two oldest vineyards. A classic medium-bodied Shiraz palate, fine and silky. Picked from one of the oldest vineyards including Undoolya, a rare fragment of the original 1890s fruit colony planting.Tasting Notes
Colour Deep garnet with a purple hue Nose With wonderful intensity of fruit its fragrance rises from the glass, revealing a deep swell of darker plum and rhubarb scents with black olive and a subtle floral tone of hyacinth. Palate Classically medium weight, it seamlessly transitions from a layered, silky flow of fresh, darker old vine Shiraz character into a finish of persistent, ultra-fine tannin marked by a plush extension of fruit and a delightful, stony mineral finish. A lightly cured note of pastrami aids the progression, providing a savoury complexity reflective of the fine, mild growing season. Vineyards 100% Shiraz from Wynns own vineyards on the Terra Rossa strip. The backbone of this wine is parcels from Wynns two oldest vineyards Undoolya (planted 1894-7) and Johnsons Block (planted 1925). Average vine age 57 years.Product Details
