History
Highbank Wines has been dubbed “Coonawarra’s Artisan” by wine writer, Neale Martin from eRobertParker.com, and one visit will confirm that view.
Highbank Wines is a classic, small, family winery on a raised section of rich, red, terra rossa soil – the soil that makes the Coonawarra such a prized wine region world wide.
Highbank’s premium handcrafted wines are certainly gaining attention from wine enthusiasts and are regularly sighted on the wine lists of Australia’s top restaurants. Wine critic Robert Parker has described Highbank Coonawarra Proprietary Red as “A very impressive wine. Full-bodied, with outstanding richness, a cherry, multi-layered texture, admirable purity, and superb equilibrium and palate presence, this is a beautifully knit, restrained yet intensely-flavoured Cabernet Sauvignon based wine that is only hinting at its ultimate potential.”
