Crayères Vineyard Reserve Cabernet Blend

Terre à Terre Crayères Vineyard Reserve Cabernet Blend is an assemblage of the best parcels of Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz and Cabernet Franc from the close spaced Crayères Vineyard at Wrattonbully.

Each variety is handpicked and handled separately in the winery. The fruit is destemmed and crushed for fermentation.

After pressing the parcels are racked to French oak barrels to age for an average of 11 months. Most of the oak is new. The varieties are then blended in a 4,000 litre French oak foudre to mature further.

After a light egg white fining, the wine is racked once more before bottling without filtration. It develops in bottle for 18 months prior to release.

Deep dark red, Terre à Terre Crayères Vineyard Reserve Cabernet Blend has red and black berry flavours, elegant velvety tannins and persistent length. Cellaring potential is 20 years.
