Description
Duane Coates is one of the quiet achievers of the Australian Wine Scene (Masters in Oenology and an MBA from Adelaide University & soon to become a Master of Wine). His winemaking philosophy is simple: the highest quality fruit from sustainable vineyards (some organic), harvest when properly ripe and a natural winemaking approach (minimal intervention – wild yeasts, unfined, no additions of tannin, enzyme and acid).
Huon Hooke said: “ Every wine I’ve tasted of McLaren Vale’s Duane Coates has been excellent…” Highly impressive wines – a style that bridges the gap between fruit driven Australian style and savoury complex wines of old world Europe. Lisa Perrotti-Brown, from leading international website erobertparker.com said – “..a breath of fresh air in this area where a lot of producers seem to be following the herd down that incredibly ripe and sometimes over-ripe path that has caused not a few producers to come unstuck in heat-wave and drought conditions. These are superbly-crafted, well-priced wines that are wholeheartedly recommended’.
Superb pedigree of fruit sourced from this fine 30 year old Langhorne Creek vineyard… (it goes into 707 and into Drew Noon’s wines!) This is classic cabernet with pin point focus, fine grained tannins and terrific length! Bargain!
95 points James Halliday 2016 Australian Wine Companion “The yield of only 5 tonnes/ha from 30+yo vines provides the concentration and structure, 22 months in 75% new and 25% 1yo French oak adding complexity without compromising the varietal fruit expression. A high quality cabernet, its savoury black fruits and ripe tannins right on the money.”
