Terre à Terre Crayères Vineyard Cabernet Shiraz 2023


Released 1st August. Wrattonbully Cabernet (65%) Shiraz (35%) blend - easy on the new oak (18%), along with the use of Foudre. 


There remains a smattering of that oak on the nose: gentle play-doh, residual spice. Fruit begins to speak, black and brambly - heavier notes come to the fore. 


Plush, velvety palate - subtle tannins. Latterly twists of black pepper, anise - the wine building in stature as it blossoms in the oral cavity. Feels good to go now - settled, assured. Yet it's of some sustained presence and that - along with history and pedigree of winemaking - informs as to its path ahead. 94
