Product Notes

Torbreck The Steading is an exceptional red wine blend crafted by the renowned Australian winery, Torbreck Vintners. With a deep ruby color, this wine is a complex amalgamation of three different Rhône varieties – Grenache, Shiraz, and Mataro. The Steading exudes a bouquet of juicy blackberries, smoky oak, and fragrant spices, with a hint of vanilla and chocolate. On the palate, it is full-bodied, rich, and complex, with a firm but silky texture and a long finish. This exquisite wine pairs well with grilled meats, spiced game, or even a hearty tomato-based pasta sauce. Perfect for special occasions or a romantic dinner, Torbreck The Steading is a wine to savor and cherish.

Tasting Notes

The Steading has a fragrancy, purity of fruit, mid-palate concentration and savoury tannin profile that makes it an exemplary wine. Vibrant aromas of violet, star anise and spice all unfold to reveal an impressive array of underlying fruit flavours. Silky, succulent dark fruits, black olive, savoury earth, liquorice and Asian spice. These complex yet elegant flavours are all neatly interwoven with a perfect balance of acidity and supple, silky tannins

About the Winery

Torbreck

Located in Australia’s premium wine-producing region of Barossa Valley, Torbreck Estate was established in 1994 to produce some exceptional quality Rhone-style wines. The first vines were planted here during the 1840s. The plantings were all of Rhone Valley varietals, such as, Shiraz, Grenache and Mourvedre. Today, the red and white wines produced at Torbreck are considered some of the best in the Barossa region.

With its great Mediterranean climate, Barossa has the perfect English tradition of winemaking, which suits Torbreck’s techniques. This region had a rich history of over 175 years of winemaking when this label was created. Therefore, the management of Torbreck decided that they would continue to make wines from Barossa, the region that lent unique structure, flavour and elegance to the wines.

At Torbreck, the team practices minimal intervention at all times, to give respect to the land that creates the fruits. Maintaining low yields, using indigenous yeasts for fermentation, hand-harvesting of the fruits and allowing them to age naturally & gracefully are some of the sustainable techniques practiced here.

Over a period of time, Torbreck also managed to acquire some of the precious Barossa vineyards. They started making exceptional wines, because they invested in great & fertile vineyards, such as, Hillside Vineyard at Lyndoch, Laird Vineyard at Marananga and Schultz Family’s Greenock Keller Vineyard. By 2008, the estate had its own winery and bottling line. By 2017, Torbreck had grown so big that its cellar door got transformed into an international guest centre. Currently, this centre welcomes wine lovers from across the world.

One of the highlights to watch out for at Torbreck is the 225l oak barriques, used for maturing the grapes at the Laird Vineyard. These barriques are so unique that they are regarded as one of the finest in the world. These were handcrafted by expert French winemaker, Dominique Laurent.
