About this Wine

Torbreck Runrig Shiraz 2014 is a silky, fragrant wine from a challenging vintage. Despite spring frosts and a hot dry summer, a cooler mid-February benefitted the extended ripening season. The wine displays intense cherry plum, dark chocolate, mulberry, five-spice, and notes of clove, liquorice, and cinnamon. A blend of 98.5% Shiraz and 1.5% Viognier, it matured in French oak for 30 months, enhancing texture. This beautiful wine has firm tannins and great cellaring potential, aging well for 15-20 years.

Intense, lifted aromatics of dense cherry plum and dark chocolate all come to the fore with an opulent fruit profile of mulberry and five-spice. A silky textured palate of deep red cherry fruits, clove and liquorice all interwoven with hints of sweet spice and cinnamon. The layers and diverse fruit characters continue to evolve in the glass with hints of ironstone, anise, blackberry, and pepper all becoming more persistent in the finish. This silky, fragrant RunRig will certainly reward those with patience. - Torbreck Vintners
