Wynns V&A Lane Cabernet Shiraz 2014
“V&A Lane is a long, straight road on the Wynns property that dissects Coonawarra’s famous terra rossa strip at its midpoint. Surveyed in 1851, the lane divides the original electorates of Victoria and Albert.
Traditionally, the road has been used as a landmark to separate northern and southern vineyards in Coonawarra, as well as being a prestigious and sought-after location for growing exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz grapes.
This wine honours Wynns’ prized vineyards along V & A Lane. The Cabernet vineyards from V&A Lane have been important contributors to Wynns’ top wines for many years and have great pedigree. This area is also gaining a reputation for great Shiraz, and a marriage of the two varieties reflects Wynns history through the early claret style wines of the 1950s and 60s. The distinctive fruit from these vineyards has a signature finesse and is the defining characteristic of this location along the Coonawarra strip.” – Wynns Coonawarra Estate
