Torbreck The Factor Shiraz 2018
The Factor is a full-bodied, Shiraz wine from the Barossa Valley in Australia. It is made from old vines, some of which are over 100 years old. The wine is aged in a combination of new and seasoned French oak barrels for 24 months.
The nose of The Factor is complex and inviting, with aromas of dark chocolate, blackberries, plums, and spices. The palate is rich and concentrated, with flavours of blackberry, plum, chocolate, and espresso. The tannins are well-integrated and the finish is long and lingering.
The Factor is a great wine for drinking with food. It pairs well with grilled meats, game, and hearty stews. It can also be enjoyed on its own, as an after-dinner drink.
The Factor is a limited-release wine, so it is not always easy to find. However, it is worth seeking out if you are a fan of full-bodied Shiraz wines.
