Juveniles is Torbreck's lighter, more playful take on the Barossa classic GSM blend - a wine made to be drunk young, without too much ceremony.
Expert's Description
Torbreck Vintners Juveniles 2017 is a Red Wine from Australia made from a blend of 61% Grenache Noir, 28% Mataro and 11% Shiraz, bottled at 15% ABV.
Torbreck is known for honouring the Barossa Valley's old vineyards and the classic Rhône grapes. Juveniles is the house's effortless, tank-aged cuvée, where the Grenache is allowed to lead with a light, pure fruit character rather than power and weight.
