Fraser Gallop Estate has once again been recognised by The Wine Advocate, with Erin Larkin’s January 2026 Australian New Releases report placing our wines among the country’s finest.
Reviewed alongside some of Australia’s most respected producers, these wines reflect our ongoing commitment to site expression, restraint and longevity. Crafted with precision in Wilyabrup, Margaret River.
Below, we share highlights from the latest reviews, with links to purchase where available.
2022 Palladian Cabernet Sauvignon
Our flagship Palladian Cabernet Sauvignon continues its remarkable track record, earning 97 points and being described as “one of Australia’s finest Cabernets, year in year out.”
Erin Larkin notes a wine of “sophistication, finesse and delicacy alongside transparency of place,” with layered aromatics of bay leaf, tapenade, raspberry and pomegranate. Silky, fine and ferrous, this is a Cabernet built for the long haul, with a drinking window extending through to 2042.
2023 Parterre Chardonnay
The 2023 Parterre Chardonnay was awarded 95 points, praised for its concentration, spice and composure.
Described as “sophisticated and sleek,” this wine showcases the Fraser Gallop house style with clarity, restraint, poise and precision carried by a superb vintage. A vibrant core of fruit and acidity drives a long, seamless finish, marking this as a standout Margaret River Chardonnay with excellent cellaring potential.
2024 Parterre Chardonnay
Coming Soon
Although not yet released, the 2024 Parterre Chardonnay has already received an impressive 95-point review.
The wine is described as “excellent,” with lemony acidity, sleek phenolics and an abundance of white peach fruit. Notably, despite 2024 being a hot and dry vintage in Western Australia, the wine remains true to Fraser Gallop Estate’s elegant, composed style, a testament to thoughtful viticulture and winemaking.
Release details will be announced soon.
A Continuing Commitment to Fine Wine
In her January 2026 report, Erin Larkin reflects on the paradox facing Australian wine today – extraordinary quality produced under increasingly complex conditions, and reminds us that “greatness is happening as we speak.”
We are honoured to have our wines recognised within this context and remain deeply committed to crafting site-driven wines that speak clearly of Wilyabrup and Margaret River.
