El Piadoso Rioja Gran Reserva 2015
Ripe fruits and wood spice notes makes this a great match for a roast rack or slow-cooked shoulder of lamb. The 36 months spent in barrel and then bottle-ageing have created a balanced and beautifully textured treat for Rioja fans.
Torbreck Vintners, Woodcutter's Shiraz 2021
You’d imagine a high country Scottish woodcutter might like a fortifying red at the days end – something rich, warming, full bodied and affordable. This wine reflects the up and coming Shiraz vineyards of the Barossa, rather than the battle hardened old vines that make up the core of our other cuvées. But like all Torbreck wines, Woodcutter’s Shiraz receives the very best viticultural and winemaking treatment. Fruit is sourced from hand-harvested and hand-tended, low-yielding vines, then open fermented and gently basket pressed before ageing on fine lees for 12 months in large format seasoned barrels and foudres. Although this wine is constantly praised for its succulence and richness, there is also a complexity and texture which is rarely found at this price.
