Coonawarra Cabernet at its most classic and confident. Parker Estate's 2022 Terra Rossa Cabernet Sauvignon is a benchmark expression from the southern tip of the famed Terra Rossa strip. Sourced from the estate’s Abbey Vineyard—home to Reynell Selection Cabernet cuttings with Bordeaux lineage—this wine captures everything that defines great Coonawarra: purity of fruit, regional character, and remarkable ageing potential.
Each parcel is handled separately for maximum complexity, with fermentation carried out in small batches and a portion undergoing extended maceration to build structure and depth. Aged for 12 months in French oak (50% new), the result is layered and poised—packed with cassis, blackcurrant, dried herbs and spice, all tied together with firm yet approachable tannins.
It’s drinking beautifully now with red meats or hard cheese, but will reward careful cellaring for a decade or more.
