Terre à Terre Crayères Vineyard 2019 Reserve
Author: Regan Drew | Vino Notebook
“Flagship red blend from the Bizot’s. Cabernet Sauvignon (62%), Shiraz (19%) and Cabernet Franc (19%). Fruit grown on the 37 million year old soils in the Crayères vineyard, (located next to the lauded Tapanappa Whalebone vineyard). Bottled under cork (using 1 by 1 technology).
Medium garnet in hue with bright ruby edges. Potent and full with cassis, violets, pepper bark, eastern spices, camphor, bramble, licorice, leather and a little choc mint. Incredibly layered and complex. Full length and then a bit more. Texturally right on with dark fruit focus, spiced highlights and an impressive flyscreen of hyper tight tannin. For now or for the ages.
