Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: Torbreck’s Old Vines GSM is big, dense, and concentrated, it hits the nose rather like an anvil of fruit and spice – in a good way – with tons of ripe raspberry, boysenberry, pomegranate, black pepper and coffee. On the palate it’s medium full-bodied, voluptuously ripe and velvety, with mixed berry fruit, spice, chocolate and meaty notes leading to a yummy, lingering finish. A lovely wine. My note: A tasty, meaty, savory red with notes of blackberry, bacon fat, cedar spice and black plum. Absolutely delicious! Food matches: pepper steak, saucy saUnited Statesges.
