Here’s a very special wine that we’re featuring this time around that we know will please your palette. Named after a forest in Scotland where the winery’s owner, David Powell, worked for a time as a lumberjack, Torbreck has been called by The Wine Advocate’s Jay Miller as “a Barossa Valley benchmark as well as one of the world’s greatest wine estates. The top cuvees are limited production and expensive but there are also some outstanding values in the portfolio.” The 2006 Woodcutter’s Shiraz was sourced from six sub-regions of the Barossa. The wine was aged for 12 months in large, neutral French oak and was bottled unfined and unfiltered. Purple-colored, it has an attractive array of pepper, spicy blackberry, black cherry, and blueberry muffin aromas. Full-bodied and opulent on the palate, the wine delivers gobs of meaty, full-flavored blue and black fruits to accompany its forward, easy-going personality.
At The Diamond Ridge Market we have a couple of magnums (1.5 liter) bottles and plenty of 750 ml of the Shiraz so come by and stock up.
