Wynns Coonawarra Estate Cabernet Sauvignon The Siding 2021
Coonawarra, South Australia, AustraliaWynns Siding is an introductory cabernet well managed by winemaker Sue Hodder and her team. Having perfected the Black label to another level, The Siding has found a gap to fill for anyone looking to get acquainted with the style of Coonawarra cab. It opens with a brush of earth and dried herbs before a rush of soft, round, plummy, blackcurrant takes over. The oak is seamless, offsetting some sticky tannins and bright acidity, while the finish is streaked with cedar, graphite, and menthol reminiscent of some parts of Napa and Bordeaux. This is everything you could want for 25 dollars, and if you are a beef eater, it will work with any number of dishes, from tacos and burgers to steaks.Tasted: 24 September 2024Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $24.00 | 750ml | Everything Wine |
