Tasting Notes

Parker Estate Terra Rossa Merlot 2023

"Medium-deep crimson. Pretty and refined dark cherry and mulberry aromas are
accented with leafy/cedary notes. Fleshy blackberry, blackcurrant and gravel
flavours with silky textures fan out to a fine yet detailed finish with attractive
density and depth of tannins. Drink 2025–2032" 93 Points, The Vintage Journal

"Parker Estate's Abbey Vineyard represents the ambitions and ideals of contemporary generations, where heritage and modernity are beautifully blended." Andrew Caillard MW, The Vintage Journal Verticals

Since its first release in 1988, the name Parker Coonawarra has represented outstanding quality, longevity and elegance from the region. Based in the very southern end of the Terra Rossa strip, the wines have always embodied a fine, long-lived, classic style. The Hesketh family became the custodians of the vision for Parker in 2013, and have continued with these ideals. The wines offer an exceptional insight into why the Coonawarra region became famous for powerful yet delicious cabernet. This includes a Langton's classification for the flagship First Growth bottling.
