A standout Margaret River Cabernet, the Fraser Gallop Parterre Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 offers elegance, structure, and finesse in equal measure. Sourced from the estate’s meticulously maintained Wilyabrup vineyard, this wine reflects both site and vintage in a beautifully restrained and age worthy style.
Halliday Wine Companion - 96 Points
A beautiful Parterre this vintage. It’s heady with violets, mulberries, fresh herbs with rolled tobacco and some nori, even blueberry muffins of all things, plus cedary oak. The palate is mid-weighted with fine tannins and equally fine acidity and is balanced all the way through. A wine of harmony that will last some distance. Jane Faulkner
