This has all these attributes, layers of pomegranate, raspberry, red licorice, salt bush, cassis and peppercorn. A beautiful wine, with a proven track record for graceful ageing. This vintage will be no exception.
96 Points Erin Larkin, Halliday Wine Companion
The Fraser Gallop project is an exciting one to follow. Backed by the trio of the ’07,’08 and ’09 vintages, it’s not missed a beat and is delivering wine quality that knocks on the door of Margaret River hierarchy. This shows a beautifully ripened cabernet nose: purple cherry and cassis, ripe herbs, violets and gravel, all handsomely dressed in cedary, sweetly spiced oak. The palate’s rolled out in impeccably elegant fashion: smooth mid-palate tannins build gentle grain and grip towards the finish, holding fresh cherry, plum, cassis and mulberry flavour throughout. A pristine, youthful cabernet with faultless balance – hard to beat for value
96 Points Nick Stock, Good Wine Guide
It’s a sturdy, almost muscular wine with chalky, sinewy tannin and a focus on line and length. By that I mean that it’s not a plump or particularly voluptuous wine; it tastes of gravel and blackcurrant and gumnuts but the tannin kicks early, pulling this flavour confidently/assertively through the finish.
Classic cabernet styling. Excellent persistence. It needs some time but it looks set for a very bright future.
