    Producer

    The Wynns Coonawarra Estate vineyard benefits from exceptional terroir, characterized by red 'terra rossa' soils resting on a limestone subsoil. This unique soil offers perfect drainage and excellent water retention, promoting optimal grape ripening. climat Coonawarra has a temperate climate, with hot summers and cool winters, allowing for a long growing season and intense aromatic concentration in the berries. The maritime influence moderates temperatures, ensuring a perfect balance between ripeness and freshness.

    Owner and history

    Wynns Coonawarra Estate is part of Treasury Wine Estates, a major player in the global wine industry. The group is committed to preserving Wynns' heritage and continuing to produce exceptional wines that reflect Coonawarra's unique identity. The Wynns teams are passionate about their craft and strive to express the full potential of this exceptional terroir.

    Vinification and aging

    The John Riddoch Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted with the utmost care, respecting both tradition and modern techniques. The grapes are hand-harvested and rigorously selected. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, with extended maceration to extract aromas and tannins. Aging occurs in French oak barrels, some of which are new, for an extended period. This process refines the tannins and adds complexity to the aromas, while preserving the wine's freshness and elegance.

    The team's opinion

    A Cabernet Sauvignon of rare depth and elegance, which captures the essence of the Coonawarra terroir with remarkable precision.
