The estate and the wine |
|
|
A prestigious and remarkably discreet name in Australian wine, Torbreck stands at the pinnacle of global viticulture and is a consistent favourite of critic Robert Parker.
Since 1994, the estate has paid tribute to the ancient vines of the Barossa Valley—some of the oldest in the world and, in many cases, still ungrafted.
Torbreck’s wines have captivated critics, capturing the very essence of the region’s climate and its old-vine Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Grenache through a sought-after range of expressions.
Beyond its legendary flagship, The Laird, every wine from Torbreck carries a distinctive signature: an extraordinary balance of power, concentration, and freshness. |

The 2021 Barossa Valley The Steading Red is arguably one of the estate’s most compelling wines for its price. This beautifully ripe Syrah bursts with dark fruit and spice—think black cherry, wild blackberry, cardamom, and a touch of smokiness. Silky, supple tannins and a refined, layered palate make it utterly delicious and perfectly balanced. A standout expression of both grape and terroir, crafted from a cooler vintage with excellent aging potential — easily 10 years or more. Rated 95/100 by Parker. |
