Wynns Coonawarra Estate was founded by Scottish pioneer John Riddoch, who planted vineyards in 1891 recognising the potential of the rich, red Terra Rossa topsoil and the long ripening season of Coonawarra’s cool southerly climate. He completed the Estate’s three-gabled winery in 1896.

Coonawarra’s revival began in 1951 when Melbourne wine merchants Samuel and David Wynn purchased Riddoch’s original vineyards and winery. The Wynns recognised the intrinsic qualities of Coonawarra wines – their richness and intensity of fruit character – and set out to build an independent identity for the region. They created the famous three-gabled label that has made John Riddoch’s winery one of Australia’s best-known buildings.

Today, Wynns Coonawarra Estate is the region’s largest single vineyard holder on Terra Rossa soil and Coonawarra’s pre-eminent wine maker.

With the most premium and longest established vineyards in Coonawarra, Wynns Coonawarra Estate wines are regarded as benchmarks for the district, lauded for their sheer depth and concentration of flavour.

Housed in the three-gabled winery, Wynns Cellar Door, invites guests to explore the history of Coonawarra and experience our wines from Cabernet, Shiraz and Merlot varietals to Pinot Grigio, Riesling and Chardonnay.

The Wynns Coonawarra Cellar Door offers a selection of tasting experiences to choose from, showcasing current and back vintage wines. Wines by the glass, cheese platters, plus an extensive cellar of back vintage wines and magnums make a visit to Wynns a must.

Wynns also offers a state of art conferencing facility in our John Riddoch Room, with all of your needs catered for.
