Torbreck ‘Old Vines’ Barossa Valley 2017: This wine is produced from hand-picked grapes from the Barossa Valley, home to some very ancient vines; some more than 100 years old. Grapes are gently basket-pressed with the free-run juice fermented and then aged in older French oak barrels. This tender loving care is evident in their wine. Lush and concentrated with juicy red berry, smoked meat and sweet cake spice flavours on the palate. Tannins are velvety. Delicious now, but should show its best during the next five years. Alc 15% Grapes: 65% Grenache, 25% Shiraz, 10% Mourvèdre
