Parker Coonawarra Estate
Since Peter Lehmann’s son Philip Lehmann took over the winemaking reins at Parker Coonawarra Estate, the quality has hit a new level. The most arresting wines are the new $24 reds from the excellent 2013 vintage. The Parker cabernet is among 118 reviews of new-release cabernet sauvignons and cabernet blends that I’ve recently uploaded on the huonhooke.com app. Also in the system is the superb 2013 shiraz under the same label.
