Critics have scored this as one of the top 5 Barossa Valley wines: The Wine Advocate gave the 2020 vintage a score of 97.

Critic tasting note: (2019 vintage) “2019 was a vintage of quality over quantity. Torbreck’s premium Shiraz deftly demonstrates the former. A deep crimson color, it opens with heady aromas of concentrated purple and blue fruit framed by cracked pepper, chocolate, menthol and glossy oak. The richly textured palate is supported by powerful, still-youthful tannins. A little alcohol heat and a lot of oak can be felt, but both will subside with more time in the bottle. A special occasion steak wine to hold until at least 2024 and then drink until 2042, at least. Christina Pickard” –96/100,Wine Enthusiast
