Terre à Terre Crayères Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2016
“Possibly the best Terre a Terra Cab yet. Oak is omnipresent, but the fruit is well up for it. A firm, richly textured, right bank-esque full tilt red with classic cedar varietal character, coffeed oak and thick-cut tannins. Large, powerful and very ripe ala St-Emilion, but has an unexpected balance, Oak tannic. Warm. Firm. A huge statement of a wine, and impressive because of that impact. Long and built to last for decades. Six to eight years for a start, then twenty years.”
Rating: 18.5/20, 94/100
