The Gask is sourced from elevated Eden Valley sites of old vine Shiraz and takes its name from the Gask Ridge, a series of Roman fortifications close to the highland line near the Torbreck Forest
The elevated sites in Eden Valley yield small, intense berries that possess great intensity of flavour without sacrificing balance and poise.
Mataro (or Mourvédre as it is called in France) was once a ‘workhorse variety’ used for fortified winemaking in Australia, but is now receiving due acknowledgement as a superb varietal table wine, taking its place alongside Barossa Shiraz and Grenache.
Grapes grown at our historic Hillside property, located in the southerly Barossa sub-region of Lyndoch, are typified by lifted aromatics and fine tannins - highly expressive and impeccably balanced.
Torbreck Vintners was created with the aim of building one of the best wine estates in the world. The vision is to pay homage to the vineyards of the Barossa Valley, home to some of the oldest vines on the planet.
