A cool and decidedly floral-inflected nose speaks of a spicy blend of both red and dark currant along with plenty of sauvage hints

red currant and earth aromas

this is built for the long-term and unless you’re going to drink this when it’s very young it would be better to plan on allowing this to rest at least 10 years in the cellar

Clearly a stupendous effort but just far too young at this stage

Torbreck, Struie other_regions_italy A cool and decidedly floral-inflectedA composed, energetic 2011, this blend of Barossa and Eden Valley shiraz has much to offer in terms of both fruit depth and balance. Plenty of dark berries and plums swathed in savory spices, and there's an earthy side here too. The palate delivers ample, sweeping, soft, fleshy blackberry and graphite flavors. Smooth, layered tannins fan out nicely. Plum and stone finish. Drink now.
