Torbreck, Barossa Valley, Steading, Shiraz 1998

96 points Wine Advocate

The the dense ruby/purple-colored 1998 The Steading (also a blend of 60% Grenache, 20% Mourvedre, and 20% Shiraz) boasts a creamy texture in addition to a glorious bouquet of black raspberries, kirsch, cassis, minerals, and licorice. Seductive, voluptuously-textured flavors unfold on the palate, and the texture is so plush that the taster feels his palate is resting on a water bed of overripe black fruits. Extremely long (45+ seconds), this sensational wine can be drunk now or cellared for 10-12 years. (RP) (2/2000)

94 points James Halliday

Medium to full red-purple; a rich, gently ripe bouquet, with sweet, savoury edges to deep berry fruit; well-handled oak. The palate exudes ripe, dark blackberry fruit; luscious, soft tannins to close. (JH) (6/2000)
