Torbreck 2006 The Steading Red (Barossa Valley)

Country: Australia / The Steading
Variety: Rhône-style Red Blend South Australia
Winery: Torbreck / Barossa Valley

The 60% Grenache shows in this wine’s red-berry aromas and flavors, while the 20% Mourvèdre imparts a slightly horsey, leathery note. It’s full-bodied and lushly textured, it just doesn’t seem quite as harmonious at this stage as some earlier vintages.
