98 Robert Parker
The... how to describe this... it's like a kaleidoscopic vortex of midnight flavor (dark, dense, brooding and spicy), swirling tannins and endlessly plush length. The Viognier in this 2019 RunRig has been absorbed somehow, compressed by the warm, low-yielding vintage that birthed it. It has been pushed down into the reaches of the Shiraz, which is a very good thing, as its propensity for slinky-like bounce and spiral needs some limiting. This is insanely complex yet also balanced. Charry oak frames the wines from all sides, but like the gravity pull on the earth from the sun, the oak is drawn inexorably inward. Pretty impressive, but this wine always is. A beast unto itself, wines like this have few peers.

Blackberry, blueberry and some spice aromas here. Sandalwood and cedar. Full-bodied with ultra-fine tannins that spread across the palate and show superb depth of concentration. Yet it’s agile and light-footed. Goes on for minutes. Tight still with illustrious depth and power. 30 months in French oak barrels. 50% new.

Stunning, showing a polished and expressive mix of rich dark chocolate, sticky toffee pudding and cigar box nuances to a core of spiced plum, kirsch and apricot. The spice and cedar details gain momentum on the long, velvety and expressive finish, where a thread of rosemary oil lingers. Shiraz and Viognier. Drink now through 2035.

Torbreck Vintners

Die erst Mitte der 1990er-Jahre entstandenen Torbreck Vintners haben es in nur wenigen Jahren bis an die Spitze der Weingüter im Barossa Valley geschafft. Bereits zur Jahrtausendwende war Torbreck einer der angesehensten Erzeuger Australiens. David Powell, der Gründer und Kopf von Torbreck, setzte dieses Abenteuer in Gang, als er kleine Parzellen relativ alter, nicht bewässerter und ertragsarmer Weinberge kaufte. Er fügte die Grundstücke zusammen und machte aus dem alten Bestand erstklassige Rebstöcke. Das Ergebnis ist ein delikat-aromatischer, strukturierter und ausgewogener Wein. Heute produziert Torbreck unter Leitung von Pete Kight 24 Weine, mit dem Spitzenwein Runrig. Dieser Verschnitt aus hauptsächlich Syrah mit Akzenten von Viognier wurde 1995 geschaffen und kann es mit den besten Côte Rôties an Klasse, Tiefe und Struktur aufnehmen. Ein buchstäblicher Abkömmling von Runrig ist der Descendant, der aus Stecklingen von den Runrig-Weinbergen gewonnen wird. Er ist etwas offener, aber von ähnlicher Intensität, während Factor, der 1998 kreiert wurde, ein sortenreiner Syrah mit großem Reifepotential ist.
