Wynns Coonawarra Estate Shiraz 2011
Coonawarra, South Australia, AustraliaSince 1952 this wine has long upheld Wynns Coonawarra Estate's reputation as a producer of premium Coonawarra Shiraz. Typically, the Wynns Coonawarra Estate Shiraz has aromas reminiscent of ground black pepper, mulberry and raspberry but in 2011 relies more on spice, pepper and aromatics than fruit. Oak is used to mature and increase the wine's complexity, without dominating its distinctive cool-climate character. A medium bodied wine with a lengthy finish that will age gracefully in the tradition of the original Wynns Hermitage.Tasted: 11 November 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $22.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
