From fully mature Shiraz vines grown to rich Terra Rosa soils. Coonawarra enjoys a microclimate which provides a great opportunity to make wines of classic varietal character and longevity. 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.
