Description

Torbreck is a renowned wine producer based in the Barossa Valley, Australia. The Factor is one of their most popular wines, made from Shiraz grapes. The history of Torbreck dates back to the mid-1990s when founder David Powell started the winery with a vision to create world-class wines that reflect the unique terroir of the Barossa Valley.

The Factor is a full-bodied wine that showcases the rich and complex flavors of Shiraz. The grapes are sourced from old vines that are over 100 years old, which adds depth and character to the wine. The wine is aged in French oak barrels for 24 months, which imparts a subtle vanilla and spice flavor to the wine.

Torbreck follows a traditional winemaking process that involves handpicking the grapes and fermenting them in open-top fermenters. The wine is then aged in oak barrels before being bottled. The winery uses sustainable farming practices to ensure that the grapes are of the highest quality.

The Factor is a wine that is best enjoyed with hearty meat dishes such as steak or lamb. The wine has a deep ruby color and a complex aroma of blackberry, plum, and spice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied with a rich and velvety texture. The tannins are firm but well-integrated, giving the wine a long and smooth finish.

Torbreck is a winery that is committed to producing high-quality wines that reflect the unique terroir of the Barossa Valley. The Factor is a testament to their dedication to excellence and their passion for winemaking.

Tasting notes

96 Points - The wine Advocate

This is quintessential Barossa. The red dirt in the ground rises up in the glass and transports me right back there: middle summer, hot, spicy air blowing across the tops of old vines. It's evocative. This 2019 The Factor is Port-y, concentrated and savory as all hell, with charred barrels, lamb fat, black pepper, salted licorice, pomegranate molasses and aniseed. This is about as big as I can cope with and still enjoy it; it takes density and intensity to a whole new level—no surprise for the vintage, the region and the producer. A perfect storm of thunderous strength. Like staring into the abyss . . . a little bit scary, but transfixing nonetheless.
