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. |

A pure Syrah aged for two years in barrels—40% of them new—the 2020 Barossa Valley The Factor Red delivers a wine of remarkable intensity, power, and finesse. Deeply expressive, it unfolds with notes of dark fruit, spice, camphor, and vanilla, supported by a dense, concentrated structure wrapped in velvety, refined tannins. The fruit remains vivid and beautifully framed within a broad, textured palate that perfectly reflects the generosity of the vintage. A truly great wine with outstanding aging potential. Rated 96/100 by Parker. |
