Wynns 'Black Label' Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

'Probably' the greatest mainstream Cab Sav available in the country. When we say 'mainstream' we are referring to production volume and available, there's nothing mainstream about the high quality, proven longevity and excellent value.

"Wynns Black Label Cabernet is one of the best value wines in Australia and has been for decades.'Black Label' Cabernet Sauvignon, which was first vintaged in 1954, has evolved markedly over the decades. It is arguably Australia's most recognised Cabernet Sauvignon and has more than any other, helped define Coonawarra. The wine is matured in new and seasoned French oak for 12 to 18 months.

A classic Coonawarra Cabernet with pristine dark berry/ cassis aromas, fine-grained tannins and underlying savoury nuances, it develops into a rich, chocolaty wine with age. In a super vintage, this wine can look astonishingly like a 2nd or 3rd growth Bordeaux with its pure cassis aromas and cedary complexity." Langtons Classification

"Exceptional depth and hue to the colour; there are not many '11 cabernets around with the sheer opulence of this wine; the richness, depth and texture of the fruit have fully justified the obvious use of some new French oak; the tannins, too, make a positive contribution." 95pts | Halliday Wine Companion
