Torbreck Vintners, The Steading Red 2019 is Barossa comfort in a glassrich, layered, and effortlessly drinkable, with that signature Torbreck elegance running right through it.

A blend of Grenache, Shiraz, and Mataro (Mourvdre), this is Torbrecks take on a Southern Rhne-style red, and its beautifully done. The 2019 vintage delivers ripe raspberry and plum, warm spice, and a hint of earthiness, with a lovely silky texture and just enough grip to keep things grounded. Theres plenty of flavour here, but nothing feels overdone – its generous without being heavy, polished without losing character.Whether youre pairing it with a Sunday roast, grilled lamb, or simply enjoying a glass on a cool evening, this is a red that wraps you up and keeps you there.

The Steading is sourced from vines that survived the worldwide phylloxera outbreak of the 1880s, and a century later, the vine-pull scheme in the Barossa in the 1980s. The protection of this old vine resource of the Barossa Valley is central to the Torbreck story and this wine, more than any other, is an indication of what is possible from these historic cultivars.
