From AUD A$15.00
  • Duration: 30 Minutes (approx.)
  • Location: Coonawarra, SA
  • Product code: RedPre

Experience Coonawarra history with a special tasting of this
limited release wine. Named after one of the forefathers of the Coonawarra,
this wine is a collaboration between Wilson’s descendants – the Redman and
Balnaves’ families – and released in 2016 to commemorate 200 years since his
birth.



 



The 2016 William Wilson is made from Redman Shiraz (55%) and
Balnaves Cabernet Sauvignon (45%) both from old vines. The wine was matured for
18 months in French oak prior to bottling in 2018. Only 250 dozen made.



 



98 points – Huon Hooke, The Real Review



 



“The bouquet is very complex and evokes black fruits, a
basket of fragrant dried herbs, including a hint of regional mint, and the wine
is very intense, deep and long on the palate. The tannins are supple and smooth
but not too cuddly: it has a well measured grip. Terrific fleshy extract,
density and richness, with great structure and persistence. An outstanding,
striking wine which is set to be a flag-bearer for the Coonawarra region.”



 



Please note the William Wilson is only available for tasting
and purchase through the Cellar Door.
