| WOODCUTTER'S SHIRAZ 2021 Barossa Valley, South Australia |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
TORBRECK |
| This is the 14th Vintages release has an extremely deep intense purple ruby colour. Intense, very attractive, complex, spicy, very ripe, black-cherry-blueberry-cassis crumble nose with some faintly smoky, cedary notes. Dry, medium-full bodied, harmonious, well structured, intense, ripe, plummy, black cherry and cassis flavours with a lingering, fairly high acid, gently cedary, slightly smoky, complex finish. This classy, mouthfilling, 100% Shiraz has 15% alcohol, under 3 g/L residual sugar and only 5.7 g/L total acidity with lot number L23152 on the lower part of the glass bottle. Unfiltered and aged for 12 months in well-seasoned French oak hogsheads and Foudre. The screwcap closure means that it can probably keep for another 5-10 years in a proper wine cellar. |

| TASTING NOTE: Lovely ripened blackberries and raspberries. Al dente. Full-bodied yet so refined and focused with crisp acidity and ultra-fine, creamy tannins. Succulent and crunchy but focused and structured. Bright and purposeful. Drink after 2024 but already hard to hold back. [This will continue to evolve into the early 2030s.] Score - 96 (jamessuckling.com, Nov. 7, 2022) |
