An unwavering focus on quality has seen our flagship Parterre range described by experts and critics as everything from “totally delicious and stylish” to “right at the top of the region’s offering.”Hand-made with reference to traditional process and exceptional modern winemaking skill using fruit selected from the best performing parcels of the vineyard, these wines are matured in the highest quality French oak barrels coopered specifically for the estate.
We consider these wines to be a quintessential representation of the region. They are excellent now and promise more for the future.
Although Malbec has always been blended to our Parterre Cabernet Sauvignon, it’s the first time it has been exclusively elevated to the Parterre Range.
A lovely lemon-lime citrus freshness in the mouth and a hint of Thyme. The creamy vanilla texture from extended barrel maturation gives the wine a long chalky textural finish to soften the acidity a touch.
Flavours of lemon-lime crumble, lime zest and vanilla, quite juicy in its intensity and long lasting flavour.
Will develop further complexity with 10-12 years of careful cellaring.
