Torbreck The Struie Barossa Valley and Eden Valley Shiraz 2023

The 2023 Torbreck The Struie is a powerful, complex and beautifully crafted Shiraz from one of the Barossa’s most celebrated and respected producers — rich, structured and built with the dark fruit intensity, spice complexity and cool-climate lift that makes The Struie one of the most distinctive Shirazes in the Torbreck range.

My Wine Man on Torbreck

Torbreck is one of the Barossa Valley’s most celebrated and internationally acclaimed producers — founded by Dave Powell in 1994 and built on a philosophy of sourcing the finest old-vine Barossa and Eden Valley fruit and crafting wines of extraordinary depth, complexity and longevity. The Struie is Torbreck’s benchmark cross-appellation Shiraz — blending the power and dark fruit intensity of old-vine Barossa Shiraz with the cool-climate lift, spice and mineral precision of Eden Valley fruit.

At HK$299, this is exceptional value for a Torbreck Shiraz of this quality and complexity.

Tasting Notes

Blackberry, black cherry, blood plum and dark chocolate sit at the core, with clove, bay leaf, sage, liquorice and subtle mineral spice from Eden Valley fruit. The defining feature is the balance — Barossa power and Eden Valley precision working together to create a Shiraz of extraordinary complexity and completeness.

Food Pairing

A Shiraz of this depth deserves premium lamb. We love it with Australian Grass-Fed Lamb Backstrap from My Meat Man — pan-seared rare with rosemary, garlic and a knob of butter, the tender herbaceous lamb is a magnificent match for The Struie’s dark fruit, Eden Valley spice and integrated Barossa structure.
