      Old vines, new heights—Barossa Shiraz with serious presence. Torbreck’s 2022 The Factor is a powerful ode to the Barossa’s old-vine Shiraz heritage. Drawing fruit from the iron-rich soils of Gomersal and the rugged hillsides of Marananga, this bottling celebrates the timeworn vines that still grow on their own roots—thanks to South Australia’s steadfast protection against phylloxera. The name “The Factor” nods to the historic overseers of Scottish estates, aligning with Torbreck’s mission to safeguard these treasured sites.

      This is Shiraz in high-definition. It’s rich, dense, and deeply aromatic, yet finely tuned through gentle extraction and 24 months in a mix of new and seasoned French oak. Torbreck’s approach of minimal intervention lets the old vines speak with purity and volume. The result? A wine that doesn’t just reflect the Barossa—it defines it.

      This is a Barossa powerhouse drawn from Gomersal, Krondorf, Marananga and Ebenezer. Flavours span satsuma plum, blackberry compote, dark cherry, licorice, and toasty vanilla bean. The palate is densely textured and luxurious, supported by plush yet firm tannins and persistent structure. A cleansing acidity provides polish to the wine’s long finish.
