2021 Torbreck Woodcutter's Shiraz





WINEMAKER: Ian Hongell
REGION: Barossa Valley, SA
VARIETAL: Shiraz
VITICULTURE: Sustainable/Organic
Fruit is sourced from hand-harvested and hand-tended, low-yielding vines, then open fermented and gently basket pressed before ageing on fine lees for 12 months in large format seasoned barrels and foudres.
Lifted red, black and blue fruits of red cherry, raspberry coulis, blueberry conserve and wild blackberry and blackcurrant. There is a spicy edge showing cardamom, star anise and Chinese five spice. Soft caressing tannins and voluptuous mouthfeel from plump Shiraz berries gives this wine a posture that belies its pedigree.
