Wynns Coonawarra Estate Shiraz 2012

This is a big ripe, cushy and rich shiraz with all kinds of floral violet aroma, ripe plummy fruit, vanilla and wood smoke. It's full bodied, plush, dense and very polished, with refined tannin, some vanilla and excellent length. Well-made and easy drinking. Fine now, or for the next three to five years. Tasted January 2014. Score - 90. (David Lawrason, winealign.com, Jan. 15, 2014)
