Wynns John Riddoch Cabernet Sauvignon 1998 Magnum 1.5L

Discover this John Riddoch Cabernet Sauvignon 1998 Magnum 1.5L


First made in 1982, the John Riddoch Cabernet Sauvignon was conceived as a flagship wine for the Wynns portfolio. The wine honours pasturalist and parliamentarian John Riddoch, who was the largest land-owner in South Australia’s south-east corner. With his brother George, the two owned the freehold to more than 70,000 acres. John Riddoch Cabernet Sauvignon is made in small quantities from the best available fruit grown on the estate’s extensive Cabernet plantings. Made only in years when grapes of extraordinarily high quality are available; less than one per cent of the top Cabernet grapes are used to make it. Intensely varietal and tightly structured, with volumes of ripe cabernet fruit complemented by charry French oak.

    Critical Acclaim

    Impenetrable red-purple; rich, concentrated and luscious blackberry/blackcurrant/cassis fruit on both bouquet and palate has largely - though not entirely - subsumed the oak. Likewise, the tannins are there, but are in perfect balance.
