Wynns Coonawarra Estate Black Label Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

Produced from Wynns’ best 20%-25% fruit grown on the region’s terra rossa vineyard, the Coonawarra’s major defining geological identifier, this is cabernet elegance personified. All elements link hands in unison, deep-down dark fruit aromas, a little crushed chalkiness on the nose and on the textural side later, vitality in the black-berried pastille flavour spectrum, and a subtle chariness from well-toned oak maturation. Bring all these elements together and they gather up a distinctive power on the palate, and once you’re tuned into this you’ll see a logic and efficiency in everything going on here that spells a rare kind of vinous magic.
