托布雷克 Struie 2019

This single vineyard, located next to our winery block on Roennfeldt Road, was planted in 1994 with cuttings taken from our RunRig grower vineyards – some of the oldest genetic vine material in Australia.

Shiraz is crushed straight on top of Viognier, which has been lightly pressed for RunRig, and the blend of fruit is then co-fermented. Maturation over 18 months is in barrels that have previously been used for RunRig.

This wine presents wonderfully lifted aromatics, with perfumed fresh black and red fruits, enhanced by spices and florals wafting from the glass. Aromas of blackcurrants, mulberry, cassis, and satsuma plum blend harmoniously with potpourri, dried apricots, cloves, and star anise. On the palate, the integration of dark Barossa fruits and second-use RunRig French oak barriques is perfectly balanced by its trademark viscosity. It boasts a firm mouthfeel of fine-grained tannins, complemented by a dense yet creamy texture that extols the vineyard's pedigree. Perfect for pairing with forest game, mushrooms, or truffles.
