Torbreck The Struie 2003
Barossa Valley, South Australia, AustraliaThe Struie is made with high-altitude Eden Valley fruit lending it a peppery, smoky, licorice root nose with resiny, garrigue, spicy, barnyard plum aromas flecked with vanilla cola, cherry and curry notes. An excellent complex nose it has a dry, warm, rich concentration with supple tannins. More peppery, resiny, garrigue, mocha, licorice fruit with black cherry and blackberry flavours and a savoury, anise finish. A bit dry on the finish but with fine roundness and finesse. Not shy of alcohol.Tasted: 21 November 2005Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $74.99 | 750ml | specialty |
