Torbreck Descendant 2005

The deep red clay soils in this vineyard produce fruit which is very savory, textured and rich - somewhat like a Barossa Valley Cornas in style. The similarities end there though, as co-fermentation with Viognier gives it an extra dimension - a satin-like texture and a glorious perfume. more

Torbreck RunRig 2003

Runrig is a structured, muscular wine with phenomenal density, dry vintage port-like concentration and magnificent notes of smoke, blackberries, cassis, leather and coffee.
