Torbreck's entry-level red, the 2013 Woodcutter's Shiraz, has a deep garnet-purple color and expressive blackberry pie, blueberry coulis and plum preserves nose with anise and baking spice suggestions. Full-bodied with a slightly raisiny characters on the palate, the generous fruit is held up by chunky tannins and a good amount of freshness then finishes long.

Sleek and expressive, lively and polished in texture, with currant, blackberry, cherry and floral flavors, veering toward savory notes as the finish sails on. Has presence and harmony. Drink now through 2021. 8,000 cases made, 4,500 cases imported.??–HS??Region: Australia / Barossa / Barossa Valley Select to Add
