[SOLD-OUT] Torbreck Steading Grenache Mataro Shiraz 2019

 

MEDIUM-BODIED, COMPLEX WINE, DRIVEN BY RASPERRY, POMEGRANATE GRENACHE FLAVOURS, BACKED BY EARTHY, MINERAL NOTES OF SHIRAZ AND MATARO.  

 
"A blend of 53% grenache, 28% shiraz and 19% mataro. Each component has been elevaged in large-format oak (4,500 liters) and this is the wine that reflects the vintage style and quality. It shows the all-round consistency of 2018 with bright red and blue berries, some red pastry notes and deeper, earthy, slightly tarry notes, too. The palate has a rich, supple and fleshy texture with ripe red-plum and raspberry fruit flavors, as well as soft, late-picked tannins. Drink over the next eight years." - Nick Stock, jamessuckling.com

"60% Grenache, 21% Shiraz 19% Mataro sourced from multiple vineyards ranging from 40 to 150 year old vines across Gomersal, Lyndoch, Greenock, Moppa, Marananga, Seppeltsfield and Ebenezer.

The Steading has a fragrancy, purity of fruit, mid-palate concentration and savoury tannin profile that makes it a favourite amongst the Torbreck team. Vibrant aromas of red currant, cherry, pomegranate, violet, star anise and spice all unfold to reveal an impressive array of underlying fruit flavours. Silky, dark red fruits, black olive, savoury earth, liquorice and Asian spices. These complex yet elegant flavours are all neatly interwoven with a perfect balance of acidity and supple, silky tannins. The Steading will continue to develop with time in the cellar, and provide those with patience great enjoyment well into the next decade." - Torbeck
