Terre a Terre Crayeres Reserve Cabernet/Shiraz 2020

A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz from a cool and quite dry Wrattonbully vintage. This is a wine made for extended cellaring. The fruit is super intense and married with 100% new French oak for 14 months. And yet that oak is almost imperceptible as it snuggles comfortably back into the wine. Bright red fruit notes on the nose with a palate of power and elegance in which the fine chalky tannins work seamlessly. Very long controlled palate to finish suggesting this wine will benefit from extended ageing. Drink by: 2024-2049. (Ray Jordan,winepilot.com,July 2024)
