and highly collectable expression from one of Australia’s most revered Cabernet-producing regions. Named after Coonawarra’s founding vigneron, John Riddoch, this flagship wine is crafted only in strong vintages and sourced from the estate’s finest parcels of low-yielding Terra Rossa vineyards. These ancient red soils are renowned for producing Cabernet Sauvignon with purity, structure and exceptional longevity — qualities that shine through in the 1997 release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"872\" data-end=\"1212\"\u003eThe 1997 season in Coonawarra was cool and even, marked by a long ripening window that allowed Cabernet to achieve excellent physiological maturity while retaining bright natural acidity.

The bouquet opens with notes of dried cassis, black cherry, redcurrant, cedar, cigar box and bay leaf. Secondary nuances of leather, roasted herbs, tobacco leaf, violets and earthy spice reveal the wine’s evolution in bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1598\" data-end=\"2043\"\u003eOn the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied with a supple, mature texture. Fine-grained tannins frame flavours of aged blackcurrant, mulberry, black tea, forest floor and savoury oak. A refined line of acidity provides lift and balance, carrying the wine toward a long, elegant and gently tapering finish. The harmony and composure of the 1997 vintage reflect both the vineyard pedigree and Wynns’ masterful approach to Cabernet winemaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2045\" data-end=\"2195\"\u003eWell-stored bottles remain in excellent drinking condition today, offering a graceful and fully evolved expression of Coonawarra Cabernet at its best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2197\" data-end=\"2328\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2197\" data-end=\"2208\"\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Coonawarra, South Australia\u003cbr data-start=\"2236\" data-end=\"2239\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2239\" data-end=\"2251\"\u003eVariety:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cabernet Sauvignon\u003cbr data-start=\"2270\" data-end=\"2273\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2273\" data-end=\"2285\"\u003eAlcohol:\u003c\/strong\u003e ~13.5%\u003cbr data-start=\"2292\" data-end=\"2295\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2295\" data-end=\"2315\"\u003eDrinking Window:\u003c\/strong\u003e Now – 2030\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2330\" data-end=\"2502\"\u003eA refined, beautifully matured John Riddoch Cabernet — elegant, savoury and classically Coonawarra, with superb charm for collectors and lovers of aged Australian Cabernet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vic Liquors Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41426635358294,"sku":"SK25815715","price":179.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/5301\/4102\/files\/1997WynnsCoonawarraEstateJohnRiddochCabernetSauvignon750ml_9fa520e9-d406-4d69-8ea1-fdf40a740683.png?v=1781142034"},{"product_id":"2018-penfolds-bin-169-coonawarra-cabernet-sauvignon-750ml","title":"2018 Penfolds Bin 169 Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCreated to reflect a contemporary winemaking approach, emphasising both regionality and maturation of cabernet sauvignon in fine grained French oak.
