Hints of peaches, orange marmalade, and honeysuckle emerge from the 2004 Viognier/Marsanne/Roussanne (40%, 40%, and 20% respectively). There is no evidence of wood in this richly fruity, concentrated, lusty white. Enjoy it over the next several years. David Powell, unquestionably one of the world’s finest wine producers, has an uncanny ability to discover old vine Barossa vineyards, and then secure long term contracts for their fruit. It is amazing that such high quality sources have not already been plucked by Australia’s giant wine corporations. Torbreck’s wines continue to get better and better, combining the old vine ripe fruit of Barossa with a European sensitivity to elegance and balance. The finest wines in this portfolio are pricy, but David Powell delivers some remarkable reds and whites at prices that are more than fair for the quality in the bottle.Importer: Deborah Gray, The Australian Wine Connection, Carlsbad, CA; tel.
