[SOLD-OUT] Wynns Michael Shiraz 2012

 

" Immediately rich and opulent, darker fruits with high-class oak finding genuine harmony, both as flavourists as well as creating a mouthfeel that lingers seemingly forever, the fruit still vibrant while the integration of its traditional cedary oak layers the palate with a powder-coating of fine tannins. In a mighty fine frame of expression at the moment with five to ten more years at least of such supremacy." - Tony Love

 

"I loved this wine on release several years ago, but with extra bottle age this marvelous wine from an outstanding vintage has risen to a new height in excellence and expression. It is without doubt one of the very finest releases in this distinguished line, and it is finally starting to show its best features. Certainly, it is one of the most elegant with such refined elegance and stylishness. Beautifully crafted with those fine Coonawarra chalky tannins and cleverly judged integrated oak supporting such deep and enduring fruit intensity. Gorgeous stuff. Drink 2021 – 2040." - Ray Jordan

 

"Seamless entry. A meticulous shiraz nowhere near its prime as yet, Michael builds in complexity. Fruit freshness is slowly evolving into a more developed whole, of bramble, earth and chocolate wrapped carefully in spice and oak. And those tannins? They sit in the background keeping everything in place. The 2012 is gaining on the complexity and elegance so evident at the start of its life, settling into a truly classic Coonawarra shiraz. You know when you are in the presence of a special wine. This is it." - Jeni Port
