Winery & Vintage Info

Winemaking Notes

Torbreck Woodcutter's Shiraz is sourced from younger Barossa Valley vineyards and showcases the region's hallmark richness in a more approachable style. This wine reflects the up-and-coming Shiraz vineyards of the Barossa, rather than the battle-hardened old vines that make up the core of Torbreck's other cuvées, yet receives the very best viticultural and winemaking treatment. Grapes are hand-harvested and fermented in small open-top fermenters with daily pump-overs to enhance colour and structure. After basket pressing, the wine is matured for 12 months in a combination of seasoned French oak barriques and foudres. Bottled unfined and unfiltered, Woodcutter's Shiraz is plush and expressive, with dark berry fruit, subtle spice, and a rounded, velvety finish that demonstrates the complexity and texture rarely found at this price point.

Vintage Conditions

The lead-up to the 2024 harvest saw timely spring rainfall and calm conditions for flowering and fruit set. A mild to warm summer was idyllic, propelling even growth and fruit development. A warm early summer brought on Shiraz showing bright colours and fragrance, persisting for several weeks before accelerating to powerful dark fruit and fragrantly spiced characteristics. A cooler break mid-April allowed Grenache and Mataro vineyards to develop deep colours and firm tannins. With harvest concluding on the 19th of April, Torbreck is extremely pleased with the strength and diversity of wines made from the 2024 season. These excellent growing conditions have resulted in wines with exceptional balance, vibrant fruit expression, and the structural integrity necessary for both immediate enjoyment and medium-term cellaring potential of 5-10 years.
