Parterre Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
"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."
Erin Larkin, Halliday Wine Companion, GOLD, 96 points
Palladian Chardonnay 2019
"White peach and saline acid are the defining characters here. On the palate, the flavours extend and unfurl into all the far reaches of the mouth and mind; fine chalky phenolics serve to grip and convince a second and third sip.
A very special wine."
Erin Larkin, Halliday Wine Companion, GOLD, 96 points
