Torbreck The Steading 2009

This wine is the current release and is ready to go as it is already starting to show secondary characteristics. The 20% Shiraz is showing leather in a relaxed sort of framework and the tannins from the 20% mataro are fully resolved.

Torbreck The Steading 2009

The steading is one of the easiest wines to drink as it seems to slip down my throat like a liquid glossy chocolate. The full bodied wine is a no brainer for quality drink now enjoyment with flavours of leather, dried blackberries, tar, brown sugar and french chocolate from a high class boutique store. While the length of the wine is good, the wine is more about the open flavours and mouthfeel. Drink up.
