Note di degustazione
A blend of 100% Shiraz that’s from both Eden (40-year-old vines) and Barossa Valley (60-year-old vines), the 2007 Torbreck Shiraz The Struie was aged for 18 months in seasoned French oak. Showing loads of ripe black fruits on the nose, with subtle coffee, dried meat, and licorice develop with air, the wine is medium to full bodied on the palate and admirably fruited. Round, fleshy, and balanced, this firms up noticeably on the finish, showing a savory edge and plenty of ripe tannin and grip. It should benefit from 2-3 years in the cellar, and have a decade of drinking after that.

(100% shiraz) Inky ruby. Heady aromas of cassis, boysenberry, candied plum and licorice, with notes of cocoa powder and dried flowers coming up with air. Deeply concentrated dark berry flavors are given a bitter edge by cherry pit and black cardamom notes, with velvety tannins adding structure. A very smooth shiraz whose sweet, penetrating black and blue fruit flavors cling impressively on the finish.
The 2007 Struie is 100% Shiraz from Barossa and Eden Valleys. It spent 18 months in 20% new French oak. A glass-coating opaque purple color, it sports a nose of lavender, game, bacon, and blueberry. Medium to full-bodied, it is light on its feet despite its size, dense, and layered. It has enough fine-grained tannin to evolve for 3-4 years. It will offer a drinking window extending from 2012 to 2022. Jay Miller, The Wine Advocate, Dec 2009
