2018 Fraser Gallop Parterre Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml

A medium bodied ruby red wine with crimson hues. Savoury on the nose with aromas of nori sheet, bay leaf, roast capsicum, earthy, cedary with some red berry notes. Nicely balanced on the palate with soft grainy tannins and moderate acidity and subtle oak.

86/6/4/3/1% cabernet sauvignon/petit verdot/malbec/merlot/cabernet franc. Reaching heights of near perfection, '18 was a vintage responsible for wines just like this. Supple intensity, concentration of flavour without a gram of weight, the length of flavour possessed only by very healthy, perfectly ripe and balanced grapes. What a gloriously seamless wine, continuing the proud legacy of Parterre. Drink by 2041. 96 points Erin Larkin ââ‚?James Halliday’s Australian Wine Companion
