Written Notes

Wynn’s top Shiraz was named after the famous 1955 Michael Shiraz. It was a one-off. Only two barrels were made but it was amazing wine. The line was revived in 1990 and while the early offerings were criticised for being a bit too oaky, under winemaker Sue Hodder, the wines have been wonderful examples of first class Coonawarra Shiraz. At $150, they are very much at the hefty end of Aussie pricing. The wine is deep red. A lovely mix of red and dark berries and while there is a smidge of oak evident, it is integrating seamlessly. A youthful wine with good concentration. A gentle line of acidity underneath. Fine tannins and very good length. Reasonable grip. Serious Shiraz which has a promising future and will be better in a decade.
