Mrs Q Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Fine QPR #cabernetsauvignon from #coonawarra - light vanilla toast notes backed by a broad well of cassis and blackberry preserves with soft spice. Jammy trap is avoided with lovely acidity on the palate to balance the up-front fruit and fuzzy tannins to keep things interesting. Top tier Cab for $10 at Costco. — 5 years ago

Hello #coonawarra. Everything I want and expect from the region. Classic Coonawarra. Young with great aging potential. Will really enjoy watching this wine develop. No I need a good steak to go with this wine. — 9 years ago

Coonawarra Cab's Part 3: the refined ones! Combining the good up-bringing from my previous post with, much more balance & poise gave this selection much more individuality and personality. The Wynns Alex 88 was the wine of the line up at $70. The Brands Laira the value wine of the line u at $20 followed closely by the Rymill at $25 with the Katnook somewhere in between at $35. #FilthyNowVino #Wine #Coonawarra — 10 years ago

Have some in the cellar on your recommendation. Their Pinot was good as well.

Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 1982

Well if the 82 Bordeaux are proving amazing so is this Wynns 82; like it's cousins in the Medoc; very cabernet dominant; winemaker at the time John Wade, now a WA resident; had his first go at small barrique winemaking; now more cleverly used by Sue Hodder; current winemaker; this 13% wine still has the black fruit of correctly ripe cabernet; and the tannin draw and backbone which ticks my boxes; great drink from Coonawarra; wished more from that region show this way; the bar is set; 33 years later; #wynns #coonawarra #cabernet #1982 — 10 years ago

The John Riddoch from the same year was a stunner as well.

Agree; but more oakier than the black; double new oaking has made the Riddoch a trifle oily; whereas the black looks integrated.
