For over a century, these sacred vines contributed fruit to the Orlando company, where they formed the backbone of countless spectacular historical vintages. Decimated by the government sponsored vine pull schemes of the 1980s, only four rows of these priceless vines were saved by master Ed Schild from complete annihilation.

The origins of Wynns go back to the late 1800s when Scotsman John Riddoch built the historic triple gabled winery, a building which today graces the Wynns label. In 1951 Samuel Wynn, who emigrated from Poland in 1913, with his son David, bought Riddoch's old property. The devotion and persistence of the Wynn dynasty in delivering benchmark Coonawarra Shiraz persists to this day. The finished wine is aged for a year in a combination of new and prior use French and American oak barrels.
Bright vibrant colour with vivid purple hues. Packed with mulberries, rhubarb and red cherry, overlaid by pepper and floral notes. As the aromas open up, a savoury, dark olive flavour carries through to complexing nuances of subtle toast, nutmeg and cinnamon spice. A fresh, vibrant and fruit filled palate, a structure supported by delicate oak and gentle but well defined tannins. Red fruits mesh with lingering spice notes to create a delicious and balanced Coonawarra Shiraz.
