The Wynns Black Label Cabernet is one of the stalwarts of the Australian wine scene - reliable and great value year in, year out. The currently available 2022 is the 67th consecutive vintage. This wine is my last 2008 - a classic Coonawarra Cabernet from a good vintage - with a long life into the late 2030s still in front of it. Red and black berries with mint. Full bodied with Medium plus length. Ridiculous value at $35. I’m hardly buying anything these days but this has been a regular purchase for me over the years.

Dry and acidic but with less body and personality than what I usually like from a Cabernet Sauvignon.
