*WYNNS CAB SAUV RIDDOCH 05*

Wynns Cab Sauv Riddoch 05

$88.80 750 MLS
The super-premium ‘John Riddoch’ Cabernet Sauvignon is the flagship wine for Wynns and honours John Riddoch, the pastoralist and parliamentarian who was the largest land-owner in South Australia’s south-east corner. Like the man was, the wine is larger than life, being the definitive Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon, richer, more concentrated and more complex than any other wine in the region. It is made only in years when the grapes are of extraordinary quality, and from usually less than 1% of the best fruit from the Wynns Estate vines. The 2005 is 14.0% alc. and was aged 21 months in 80% new oak of which 65% was French. Altogether a different beast to the ‘Black Label’ wine, with an impenetrable black-red colour, this has fully-ripened Cabernet Sauvignon fruit in the blackberry aromatic spectrum with nuances of liquorice and cedar from the new oak. A wine of great richness, succulence and power, with serious extraction and grip matching the fruit sweetness level, the sheer density along with palate proportion will see this develop over the next decade and a half. One of Australia’s great Cabernet Sauvignons, speaking of Coonawarra at its finest.   RC Dec 09
