”In a way, this captures the very essence of Coonawarra cabernet. It has all the heady aromas and flavours from blackberries/currants, black olives to dried herbs, pulled together by a sheath of tannins. And yet, it is distinctly Wynns – or rather, Harold. It has elegance. The oak is completely absorbed into the wine and those tannins are so finely plied. A bit like a Stradivarius violin – this is finely tuned and polished. It is the pick of the 2018 cabernets.”
