CREATING CLASSIC AUSTRALIAN WINES

2021 Terre à Terre Crayères Vineyard Reserve Cabernet Shiraz

Cabernet, Shiraz, Cabernet Franc. The first variety around 60%, the rest in equal parts. Wrattonbully stepping up to the plate. There’s a richness and ripeness to the wine; choc-blueberry, mocha notes, graphite, black plum, salted liquorice going on in scents and flavours. A complex array of characters, the wine compacted and shaped by grippy, powdery sheets of tannin. It finishes with blue fruits and cedary spice and clove piquancy. There’s serious structure here, indeed, best drinking should start in a few years, though you get a bold strike of red right now. Serious wine, done well. Reviewed July 2025.
