2023 Terre à Terre Crayères Vineyard Cabernet Franc
⭐️⭐️ ⭐️1/2 – A fine Aussie Cabernet Franc
💎 – A bargain!
🕰️ – A long decant is recommended. Cellar
Red and crimson with a nose of sweet musky florals, luscious red fruits, black olive, dried leafy herbals, blonde tobacco, cinnamon and other delicately sweet spices. In the mouth it’s very dry and tightly bound with a savoury leaning core of red berries, plum, cherries and olive that are gently spiced, supercharged with tense acidity and gripped with firm chewy tannins. It’s a serious and gourmand wine, yet remains easy to understand and pleasurable thanks to its great balance and youthful charm. It ends long with a lovely hum of red berries and crushed gravel textures. Delicious!
