About Torbreck The Steading

Torbreck The Steading is a red wine made by Torbreck in South Australia, specifically in the Barossa Valley, from Grenache, Mataro and Syrah vines that survived the phylloxera outbreak of 1880.

South Australia is one of the world’s wine-growing areas where you can still find ungrafted root stock because, thanks to strict quarantines and border controls, this area managed to outsmart this insect that attacked the root of the plants. So, most of its vineyards are planted directly into the ground, without grafting, and able to produce much more concentrated grapes that result in wines with a very marked character of their own. As a general rule, and taking into account the average age of the vines, vineyard yields are low; however, their quality is unmistakable.

For Torbreck The Steading, the grapes were harvested between March and April from seven different plots. Once the Torbreck The Steading grapes have reached optimum ripeness, they are destemmed separately and placed in uncovered wooden vats where they undergo a pre-fermentation maceration with pumping over (between 6-7 times a day). After fermentation, Torbreck The Steading is pressed into baskets and the wine is racked to French hogsheads, a large 52.5 imperial gallon wooden barrel (equivalent to approximately 199 litres), where malolactic fermentation takes place. It will remain there for 20 months on its lees until it is finally blended and bottled, without clarification or filtration.

2019

Torbreck The Steading 2019 unveils on the nose an array of scents reminiscent of a stroll through an orchard at the height of summer: wild berries, succulent cherries, and ripe plums intertwine with hints of fresh raspberry and an undercurrent of aromatic herbs. On the palate, its texture is velvety and enveloping, with a succulence that beckons one to continue sipping. The fruit flavors are affirmed, imparting a zestfulness that is counterbalanced by a subtle ripeness, culminating in a harmonious and approachable red wine.
2014

Torbreck The Steading 2014 is a richly concentrated red wine. On the nose, it is effervescent, exuding scents of cherry, star anise, violet, and nutmeg. The palate is refined, featuring flavors of dark fruits (plum), black olive, licorice, and exotic Asian spices. The acidity is harmoniously balanced. The texture is smooth and silky.
