Other bottlings in the 2023 Wynnsday Collection include the Glengyle Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 — the winery’s single vineyard release in 2007, 2009 and now in 2021 — as well as the V&A Lane Shiraz 2021 and the V&A Lane Cabernet Shiraz 2021. “Wynnsday 2023 is headlined by the 66th vintage of one of Australia’s most cellared wines, Wynns Black Label Cabernet Sauvignon, and sees the return of Black Label ‘Old Vines’ Shiraz made predominantly from our two oldest vineyards,” says senior winemaker Sue Hodder who has been with Wynns Coonawarra Estate since 1993.

Respecting the past while pioneering new sustainable practices, the winemakers have remained focused on evolving the estate’s specialty — a house style of timeless, versatile Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz reds that has endured changing tastes and times.

One of the biggest challenges facing all vineyards, including Wynns Coonawarra Estate, is climate change. By adopting more sustainable viticulture methods, such as better soil moisture management and a bigger focus on vine health, Wynns is now recognized as a 100 percent sustainable vineyard by Sustainable Winegrowing Australia.
