Bold and seductive, this youthful, unoaked blend encapsulates all that is great in a pure, unseasoned wine (no oak). A lively, intense aroma of red berry fruits, dark plum and spice. A fresh, mid palate with a vivacity and energy that this blend always generates. Ripe, juicy flavours of blackberry and cassis, spiced cherries, minerals and succulent blueberry fruit all balanced with fresh acidity and a fine gentle tannin structure.

Cuvée Juveniles was created as a ‘Cotes Du Rhone’ inspired bistro wine from the classic Barossa varieties of Grenache, Mataro (Mourvedre) and Shiraz from mostly unirrigated old vine vineyards. Alongside these three Barossa cornerstones, Torbreck has planted two other traditional Rhone varieties: Counoise and Carignan. These give savoury and spicy notes to the blend, and add a level of complexity, depth and bottle ageing potential. A wine that will enthuse the Francophile yet still win over Barossa fans.

Food Pairing: Serve with an array of cuisines including spicy dishes at or below 16 degrees Celsius.
