Torbreck The Factor 2021 - Magnum
- Australia
- Shiraz
- ABV 15.5
- Zalto Denk'Art Bordeaux Glass
19.5+/20 Points - Matthew Jukes "2021 The Factor is such a hedonistic wine it defies comprehension. It is super sexy on the nose and even more hypnotic on the palate, making this one of the most velvety and luxurious wines in the Torbreck portfolio. The crowning glory in this pantheon of indulgence is the calibre of oak employed and its perfect marriage with the spectacular fruit. There is a creaminess to this monastically calm wine that confounds the senses, and every molecule of fruit seems to be cradled by effortlessly gentle and soothing oak tones. Oak is often the culprit in spoiling thousands of potentially great red wines (I see this repeatedly). Yet Ian Hongell manages, chef-like, to augment this wine with oak orchestration, enabling it to soar in the glass. I am sure the annual oak invoice at Torbreck is an eye-watering one, but every penny is well spent when you can harmonise and elevate your fruit flavours to untold ‘Michelin-three-star’ complexity and detail. I am in complete awe of this wine and its haute couture deportment. It is yet another expression of Torbreck, showing that each vineyard plot, combined with total understanding and vision, can result in the most wonderful experience." Drink 2026-2040
