"This Shiraz bangs out spice and dark berry - performing like a world tour and taking center stage. The band recommends enjoying Back in Black Shiraz with the music loud and just like an ACDC concert, it's perfect now but could also be re-lived over the next few years."

"Deep red. Aromas of red fruits, rose, lavender and cracked pepper, with a smoky overtone. Tangy redcurrant and raspberry flavors show very good clarity and pick up a subtle floral pastille quality with air, along with a touch of botanical herbs. Closes with good energy and cut and a note of tangy berry."

"Dense, rich and opulent, this wine combines great fruit purity with texture, complexity and finesse. It is elegant, structured and powerful and is a fantastic introduction to the Torbreck range. Whilst offering immense pleasure in its youth the 2011 Woodcutter’s Shiraz will no doubt develop into an impressive wine with a few years in the cellar."

"Layered and supple - like spiced red and black berry fruits, drizzled with chocolate. Finishing with rustic yet velvet tannins."

"Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, the 2011 Three Gardens SMG shows aromas of red currants, red plums and cassis with nuances of black pepper, tree bark, orange peel, and Provence herb. Medium to full bodied, it is very spicy in the mouth with plenty of red and black fruit framed by refreshing acid, a medium level of velvety tannins and a long finish."

"This is supple and inviting, polished and expressive, with cherry, cinnamon, raspberry and roasted meat flavors, which linger on the long finish."

"Torbreck’s 2011 Cuvee Juveniles presents a medium garnet-purple color and vibrant aromas of raspberry preserves, kirsch, black and white pepper and smoked bacon with just a hint of damp loam. Full-bodied with plenty of juicy red berry preserve flavors, it has a medium level of silky tannins, refreshing acid acidity and a long peppery finish. Delicious now, it should keep to 2016+."
