Chapel Hill's Michael Fragos loves using the Parsons label to showcase McLaren Vale's diversity and varietal character. To achieve the desired style and to harness the regal varietal flavours of Cabernet Sauvignon, the grapes are strategically harvested to avoid any green tannins or overripe jammy fruit flavours. Full-bodied in style, the palate is both eloquently pure and broodingly complex, supported by fine, savoury tannins. A great companion for a medium rare steak with a solid helping of steamed greens.

Bright, lush and juicy, Mitolo's Jester Cabernet Sauvignon shows a full bodied palate and mouth filling richness. 20% of the Cabernet fruit is handled in the Amarone manner - a technique of drying fruit which adds complexity and fullness to the wine and produces soft juicy tannins albeit a grainy textured finish. The Jester Cabernet is upfront and approachable for early appreciation, but will also develop with short to medium cellaring.
