Torbreck RUN RIG Shiraz Viognier Barossa Valley
Description: David Powell discovered some land in 1992 that had old Shiraz vines growing on it that were almost dead. After nursing them back to health he secured a contract to supply the grapes to a local grower. After realising that this hobby could be made into a business he decided to go full time. In 1994 he founded the company and named it Torbreck after a forrest in Scotland where he had worked as a lumberjack. Torbreck's flagship wine, RunRig is named after the Scottish Highland clans system to distribute land amongst its clansmen in a series of widely dispersed holdings or 'Runrig'. Great care is taken from the vineyard where the vines are over 100 years old to the winery, where the Shiraz cuvee spends 30 months in 60 percent new French Oak . The 3 percent estate grown Viognier is also fermented and aged for 6 months in barrel and then added to the blend just prior to bottling. This is a structured, muscular Shiraz blended with a little Viognier that is showing phenomenal density, dry vintage port-like concentration, and magnificent notes of smoke, blackberries, cassis, leather and coffee. A hint of viognier's sweet marmalade character comes through as the wine sits in the glass. Limited Availability. (6 x 75 cl)

Goyenechea QUINTA GENERACION Malbec Argentina
Description: The Malbec is considered as a variety especially well suited to Argentina and the grape used in Goyenechea's wine, comes from different established vine growers close to the Atuel River, in the state of San Rafael. The vineyard is comprised of vertical-trained wines with double Guyot pruning. The fermentation, although classic, was carried out by ''delestage'' system, macerating the cold unfermented grape juice with the solid parts of the grape for six days at high temperature. The malolactic fermentation took place afterwards. The finished wine was matured in tanks, for eighteen months, without any wood ageing. This Argentine Malbec is a plum red colour, with very high structure, good body, characteristic complexity and nice long finish. (12 x 75 cl)
