{"product_id":"2019-hundred-acre-wraith-crypt-napa-valley-case-of-3-btls","title":"2019 Hundred Acre, Wraith Crypt, Napa Valley, Case of 3 Btls","description":"LP100 \"The 2019 Crypt is deep garnet-purple in color. Notes of black cherries, mulberries, blackcurrant preserves, and menthol lead to hints of dark chocolate, licorice, underbrush, and fragrant soil. The full-bodied palate is super-concentrated, rich, intense, electric, velvety, lively, and long. Pure spine-tingling energy.\" LPB for TWI Nov 2023\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nJD99 \"The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Wraith Crypt showed similarly to last year, with its aromatics of plum, roasted herbs, baking spices, and leather nuances developing beautifully in the glass. These all carry to a full-bodied, deep, rich, powerful Cabernet Sauvignon with the classic Hundred Acre velvety, seamless mouthfeel, a deep, layered mid-palate, and incredible length. It's impossible to resist today, yet given its balance, concentration, and purity, it will have 2-3 decades of overall longevity.\" JD Jan 2025\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nDR99 \"For Hundred Acre's Jayson Woodbridge, this is where you enter the ultimate—the edge between light and darkness. The Wraiths are apparitions usually seen just before death, often working in pairs to fulfil their duty, transporting us between realms. But Wraith Crypt is the darkest, most intense expression of the Wraith series—a wine built on ultimate power and fierce elegance. It’s the darkest-coloured wine Jayson has ever made. 'Imagine the combination of Gordon Gekko and the Wolf of Wall Street,' he muses while I taste this wine. 'Dark, commanding—can you handle it? This is not a wine for mortals. It’s for those braising beef in their Scottish castle on a rainy November day.' Well, the truth is: I was far from Scotland while tasting Wraith Crypt, comfortably seated in Woodbridge's office sanctuary mancave at his long table in St. Helena. As for the wine, it's all about black fruit—cassis, black cherry, blackberry—layered with tobacco, white pepper, and crushed slate. Full-bodied, it packs a muscular punch with its velvety, pixelated tannins and smoky richness, conjuring flavours of saddle leather and whiskey-soaked smoked brisket. There’s a brooding depth, saline minerality and a finish that lingers like a haunting melody. This Cabernet is a true powerhouse with exotic layers of fruit, spices, and florals.\" JC for DR Sep 2024\n\"Wraith is a barrel selection blend composed of all three vineyards. Crypt - “Wraith Crypt” cuvée. This is the Wraith stabilized, a solid form. It spends more time in barrel.\" LPB for TWI Nov 2023","brand":"Hundred Acre","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48745853649133,"sku":"USR:HUN:CRYP-PK03-2019-F0L0C0","price":2250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/grandcruliquidassets.com\/products\/2019-hundred-acre-wraith-crypt-napa-valley-case-of-3-btls","provider":"Grand Cru Liquid Assets","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
