The 2022 Fraser Gallop Parterre Cabernet Sauvignon is a premium single-vineyard Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon crafted in a refined Western Australian style, showcasing exceptional purity, structure and longevity. Sourced from the renowned Wilyabrup sub-region, the nose is intensely aromatic, revealing aromas of cassis, blackberry and mulberry, complemented by notes of bay leaf, fresh mint, cedar, graphite and finely integrated French oak.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with beautifully polished, fine-grained tannins, vibrant natural acidity and a seamless, concentrated texture, delivering flavours of blackcurrant, blackberry and dark plum layered with hints of dark chocolate, liquorice, savoury herbs and subtle oyster-shell minerality. The finish is exceptionally long, elegant and beautifully balanced, highlighting the precision, complexity and outstanding cellaring potential that define the Parterre range.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an outstanding Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon for customers seeking a premium Australian red with exceptional elegance, structure and ageing potential. Beautifully expressive now after an hour of decanting, it will continue to evolve gracefully over the next 10–15 years, developing greater cedar, tobacco and savoury complexity while retaining its vibrant cassis fruit. Ideal with Wagyu beef, roast lamb, venison, slow-braised beef cheeks or mature hard cheeses.
