All Torbreck wines rely on great terroir and great viticulture, but the third and equally significant quality factor is the time when the fruit leaves the vineyard – the picking date. This is particularly true for Mataro, where patience is required to ensure physiological and flavour ripeness is achieved, regardless of the sugar levels in the fruit. This restraint is rewarded with dense, wild and completely rounded wines made from fruit that has reached the optimum stage of flavour development. The climate in the Barossa Valley is perfectly suited to achieving this level of ripeness and is a place where we truly believe some of the best Mataro wines in the world can be made.

Dense wild black berries, lavender, black olive, and cured meats characters are all further lifted with a complex array of leather, clove and wild game characters. At the heart of this wine is a soft plump cherry fruit core with a freshness and vivacity giving the wine focus, line and purity.

A wine for enjoyment with game meats, lamb or vegetarian eggplant based dishes like Greek moussaka or Provencale ratatouille. Enjoy now or cellar up to 2029.
