We’ve been big fans of Duan Coates wines for many years and its fantastic to see him receive international recognition … like in this quote Lisa Perrotti-Brown from leading international site erobertparker.com … ‘Though Aussie born and bred, Duane Coates draws from his winemaking experiences in the Rhône, Burgundy and Douro, developing well-balanced, individually-styled wines using his eye for great fruit and sites around South Australia. These wines really stood out… 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’. — Lisa Perrotti-Brown, erobertparker.com
