Australia

A fresh, lively Riesling with a delicate green tinge and hints of freshly picked limes and orange peel. The palate shows great fruit purity with a refreshingly crisp, dry finish. Although ready to drink now, it can be aged with confidence for a few years.

Founded in 1994, Torbreck Vintners have forged a fantastic reputation for the quality of their wines. The Struie is a blend of Shiraz from 80 year-old vines in Barossa, and higher-altitude 40-year old Eden Valley vineyard fruit. The varying altitudes and ripening patterns from the two sites results in distinctive varietal characteristics, complexity and freshness.

Torbreck Vintners specialise in Rhone Varietals, and this blend of Grenache, Mataro (Mourvedre) and Shiraz exemplifies their winemaking philosophy. Sourced from patches of withered, ancient vines over a century old, The Steading is a outstanding example of the quality that can be produced from historic cultivars.

Mouvedre works well in Australia and this is delicious. Lush bramble fruit with savoury, gamey notes.

A layered & thought-provoking blend inspired by the whites of the Rhone Valley. The underlying rich medley of fresh & roasted stone fruit is topped with a toasty note of spice-laced crumb. Balanced with a restrained zesty lingering hit of ginger on the finish.

The Barossa Valley is home to ancient wines, some over 100 years old. Torbreck has hand picked the grapes then gently pressed and aged the wine in old French oak to produce a rich, spicy, Rhone blend red.

A thoroughly enjoyable blend of Shiraz, Grenahce and Mourvedre with a dense, strawberry nose and a fresh, spicy palate of cherry fruit. Very polished.

The 2014 Xanadu Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits vibrant, characteristic aromas of cassis, mulberries, and black plums entwined with hints of cinnamon, nori, and potpourri.

The palate is medium bodied displaying white peach, nashi pear and zesty citrus flavours. There is a wonderful tension and focus to the wine, with the complexity and texture derived from lees stirring complimenting the taut, mineral structure and fruit intensity. A bright acidity and the fresh fruit flavours persist through to a crisp, lingering finish.

This Cabernet Sauvignon has a dark purple colour with bright violet edges. On the nose, it has aromas of blueberries and cassis. The palate is rich, deep and intensely flavoured with blueberry and blackberry. It has soft powdery Cabernet tannins that are softened by smooth, mouth-filling fruit before an extended finish.
