An estate-grown and bottled Cabernet, including 7% Petit Verdot and 4% each of Merlot and Malbec. It has considerable attitude, with crisply detailed and framed flavours that progressively gain velocity as they move across the palate towards the emphatic, balanced, finish. 96 points, James Halliday (winecompanion.com.au).

Fraser Gallop makes its presence known not in volume or gloss but in classic, savoury, structured definition. There’s a classic, old-fashioned feel to the style, in all the best ways, yet in time its elegant violet fragrance and beautifully medium-bodied black fruits slowly emerge. A dignified and carefully crafted Cabernet blend for the long-haul. 95 points Tyson Stelzer (tysonstelzer.com).
