Wynwood Estate is one of the Hunter Valley’s newest wine labels. The vineyard has many old vines, and with local vineyard knowledge, they are prepared and nurtured to produce the excellence in the fruit, while the winemaker, Peter Lane, hand selects the grapes to create the elegance of fine Hunter Valley wine.

The Wynwood Estate wine range is comprehensive, there is something to suit an array of wine consumers. In particular, the Grey Gum range of wines can be enjoyed on their own or with a range of different food styles. There are light, zesty, fruity and sparkling styles which are all fresh and easy to drink.
Early heat in the Hunter Valley over the harvest period produced very flavoursome white wines, albeit yields reduced by one third. Rainfall then plagued the vintage, but low cropping vineyards produced some very worthy medium bodied red wines.
The 2010 Wynwood Grey Gum Shiraz is a deep red with purple hues. The nose has aromas of mulberry, plum, and rhubarb. A medium bodied wine with berry and spice flavours nuanced by a faint Hunter earthiness. Bright and vibrant, with plenty of mid-palate fruit and soft tannins.
The cellar door and surrounds creates a lovely ambience in which to taste the wines and enjoy one of the valley’s best views. Wynwood Estate is a must visit on your next wine tasting tour of the Hunter Valley.
