Torbreck The Steading 2020

The Steading is perhaps the most important wine within the Torbreck portfolio, the one that best exemplifies what Torbreck is all about. It is sourced from vines that survived the vine-pull scheme in the early 1980s, cultivated on their own roots that were unaffected by phylloxera. It also best explains the serendipitous discovery of some withered ancient vines, some well over a century old, that have been carefully nurtured back to life. Protecting and nurturing the old vine resources of the Barossa Valley is paramount to Torbreck and this wine, more than any other is an indication of what is possible from the now protected ancient Barossa cultivars – Grenache, Mataro and Shiraz.

Nose:

Predictably complex and mouthfilling; the grenache has been overwhelmed by the impact of the mataro and shiraz, licorice, tar and earth coming to the fore, coupled with tannins and alcohol.
