Torbreck Woodcutter’s Shiraz – The Australian Winemaking Process
At Torbreck, winemaking is guided by traditional Rhône Valley methods with a modern, minimal-intervention philosophy:
- Grapes are hand-harvested and carefully sorted to ensure only the best fruit is used.
- Fermentation takes place in a combination of small stainless steel and concrete fermenters, with gentle extraction techniques such as hand-plunging to develop color, flavor, and tannin.
- After fermentation, the wine is pressed off and matured for around 12 months in a mix of seasoned and a small portion of new French oak barrels. The use of older oak helps preserve the vibrant fruit character while adding subtle structure and texture.
- The wine is bottled unfined and unfiltered to maintain purity and varietal expression.
