      The Bothie is a fortified blend of traditional grape varieties which have been used to make this style of wine in the Barossa for generations. Including Madeira Semillon, Frontignac, Palomino, Doradillo, Grenache and Shiraz, these varieties have a rich, and sometimes forgotten history of fortified winemaking in the Barossa. Enjoyable with dessert, The Bothie displays powerful aromas of dried stone fruit and butterscotch, accompanied by extraordinary spicy caramel notes. The rich flavours of dried fig, toasted almond and citrus rind balance perfectly with the soft and integrated spirit, creating a full, lush, round palate.

      Torbreck The Bothie 500ml

      Majority muscat à petits grains, fortified and run across a long, deep solera. This is a glorious expression. A wine with levity and density, power and grace, sweetness and a palpable dryness. It’s very fresh, with a well-served jolt of volatility across the infinite finish. Think cloves, dates, cardamon, fennel seeds, orange bitters and the scents of an exotic bazaar. A gorgeous elixir with endless possibilities at the table and a drinking window that, frankly, is endless. Drinkable now, but will hold for years.

      Torbreck

      Torbreck was founded with the mission to become one of the world’s great wine brands, and since 1994, it has remained steadfast in its commitment to creating exceptional Rhône-style wines. The winery is located in the heart of Australia's famous Barossa Valley, which is renowned for its rich winemaking heritage and exceptional terroir. Torbreck works closely with multi-generational growers, whose families have been in the region for nearly two centuries. These growers are central to Torbreck’s winemaking philosophy, which focuses on working in partnership with the land to create wines that reflect the unique characteristics of the Barossa.

      Torbreck’s commitment to minimal intervention winemaking ensures that the expression of each vineyard’s terroir is preserved, resulting in wines that are rich, structured, and capable of ageing gracefully. The winery’s dedication to quality is reflected in their choice of high-quality oak for maturation, as well as their careful fermentation techniques that allow the flavours to develop naturally. Torbreck’s wines, are a true reflection of the Barossa Valley’s potential to produce world-class, age-worthy wines.
