Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2022 RunRig typifies everything I appreciate and value about the 2022 vintage. It is silky and open, seamless and fresh. Like the 2018 vintage, the 2022 is open and available, more so than the 2021. It is so pretty. It's gorgeous. I feel it could be stylistically likened to 2004. It's excellent. 15.5% alcohol, sealed under natural cork.

The Torbreck vertical here was the reason for traveling to Barossa during this week, and so it was with great anticipation that I embarked upon a full vertical of the RunRig—the Shiraz-Viognier wine. While there, I was also able to taste the Les Amis and the Hillside Grenaches, in keeping with the broader context of Grenache here. The notes for the Runrig wines speak for themselves; but suffice to say, the winemaking team spans a litany of great producers, starting with Dave Powell, the founder (established 1994), and ending with current winemaker Ian Hongell and his long-serving team of winemakers and viticultural team led by Nigel Blieschke. On-hand the day of this tasting were the current analyses for the wines, and where the numbers were relevant, they have been included in the notes. Suffice to say, the alcohols vary widely over time, as do the expressions of the wines in each vintage. My favorites were the early wines for their charm and their deliciousness, however this is undoubtedly aided and abetted by their age, which had worn down any edges and had rendered them elegant. I have no doubt that this is where the young wines will go in time, but if you have any old bottles of RunRig, I'd advise drinking a bottle—not out of necessity, as they have plenty of time left in them, but because they are lovely wines to drink.

Wine Spectator


James Suckling

A deeply perfumed and lifted release. Aromas of blackberries, dark chocolate, violets, iodine, porcini mushrooms, fresh herbs and an earthy, ferrous undertone. The palate is full-bodied with finely tuned tannins and a luscious and seamless mouthfeel. There is much complexity and refinement, with a high level of fruit quality. Built for the ages. Drink or hold.

Druvor

Shiraz & Viognier

Shiraz från gamla torrodlade Barossa-vingårdar blandas med Viognier, vilket kompletterar styrkorna och komplexiteten hos dessa individuella fruktpaket, samtidigt som det ger det resulterande vinet en ytterligare dimension.

Även om det är underbart aromatiskt, uppvisar RunRig också en kraft och latent rikedom som gör den mer lik de enormt koncentrerade vinerna som kommer från den soldränkta kullen Hermitage – Syrahs historiska hem och några av världens mest kraftfulla och längsta levande viner.

Torbreck är namnet på en skog nära Inverness, Skottland. Du hittar mer än en förbigående nick till kelterna i våra namnkonventioner för vin, inklusive denna hänvisning till "RunRig"-systemet för jorddistribution bland höglandsklansmän. Deras vitt spridda anläggningar sköttes gemensamt snarare än som en gård...inte olikt denna kompletterande blandning av Shiraz och Viognier som gör summan av delarna större än helheten.

Torbreck Grundaren till Torbreck är David Powell. Man kan utan överdrift kalla detta en kometkarriär och få har fått så mycket superlativ som Torbreck av vinskribenten Robert Parker. Rötterna till egendomen går tillbaka till 1992 då David arbetade på vingården Rockford. Han fick i uppdrag att rädda ett fält med mycket gamla, uttorkade vinrankor. Efter ett hårt arbete fick han liv i plantorna igen och som belöning fick han ett stycke mark med shirazdruvor, där han producerade sitt...
