Buy Torbreck Runrig 2018 Shiraz – Premium Barossa Valley Red Wine

Powerful and Aromatic Shiraz from One of Australia’s Iconic Producers

Torbreck Runrig 2018 is a world-class Barossa Valley Shiraz that delivers remarkable intensity, structure, and complexity. Made from 98.5% Shiraz and 1.5% Viognier, this full-bodied Australian red wine is a flagship expression from Torbreck Vintners, renowned for producing rich, age-worthy wines that rival the best Syrah-based wines of France’s Hermitage.

Crafted from old, low-yielding vines in the Barossa Valley, the wine underwent 30 months’ maturation in a mix of new (42%), second-fill and third-fill French oak barriques. This careful ageing has resulted in a wine of remarkable depth, elegance, and longevity.


Tasting Notes – Torbreck Runrig 2018

Appearance

Crimson core with vibrant deep purple hues.

Aroma

Intensely aromatic with layers of cherry plum, dark chocolate, mulberry, and five-spice. Savoury undertones and floral hints from Viognier add complexity and lift.

Palate

Full-bodied with a rich, velvety texture. Firm yet polished tannins provide structure, while the generous mid-palate reveals silky layers of dark fruit and exotic spice. The finish is long, firm, and persistent, showcasing the wine’s capacity for long-term cellaring.

The vision is Torbreck Vintners, which was founded in 1994 and was born out of a desire to create some of the greatest wines in the world by using the ancient, dry-grown Shiraz vineyards that surround the Barossa Valley. Securing these vineyards initially involved share-farming the property, which involves paying the owner a percentage of the market rate for their grapes in return for managing the vineyard. This share-farming principle, together with their selection of some of the most highly prized vineyards, formed the founding pillars of Torbreck’s incredible international success. The vineyards, in particular, enabled them to source some of the very best fruit in the Barossa Valley, home to some of the world's oldest and most precious vines. Provenance is everything to Torbreck. They believe that the Barossa Valley, with its gentle Mediterranean climate and 175-year Silesian and English winemaking history, is the most exciting place in the world to make wine. A European sense of tradition here means that vines planted in the 1840s – many of them Rhone varieties such as Shiraz, Grenache and Mourvédre – still thrive and bear fruit of unique concentration and flavour.
