Established in 1999, Fraser Gallop Estate comprises 50 acres under vine on an elevated aspect six kilometres from the south west coast of Western Australia at the heart of the Wilyabrup sub-region of Margaret River.
Winemaker Clive Otto is a genuine Margaret River legend. After 16yrs at Vasse Felix he joined Fraser Gallop in 2006. In 2005 he was the Winestate Magazine's Australian Winemaker of the Year. In 2009 he won the Decanter World Wine Awards Trophy for the best Cabernet Sauvignon in the world for the 2007 vintage – his first wine he produced at Fraser Gallop Estate.
Palladian wines are a pure expression of the finest grapes selected from the best performing rows of the vineyard. Described by eminent wine commentator James Halliday as “ethereal”. Production is a tiny 160 cases per vintage!
"Estate-grown, matured for 9 months in Burgundian special toast puncheons. The bouquet has some smoky nuances, but wow, it gives no warning of the incredibly pure, intense and long palate, grapefruit and white peach locked in an eternal embrace." 98pts - James Halliday
