Cuvée Juveniles is a sort of Australian "Cote Du Rhone" made from the classic Barossa grape varieties Grenache, Mourvedre (called Mataro) and Shiraz from primarily old vineyards. What makes Juveniles special is that it is not barrel aged at all, but vinified exclusively on stainless steel so as not to disturb the fine fruit and character from the soil. However, the fruit is so concentrated that many would think it had been cask.

93 POINTS / Wine Enthusiast / Reviewed by Christina Pickard:

Torbreck's most delicious offerings come, in this reviewer's opinion, not from its Shiraz-dominant wines but from its Grenache, which, and in this case, makes up 61% of the blend. It leads with tangy rhubarb, red berry, orange zest and strawberry leaf, with earthy undertones like cumin, coffee and meat, which all flow seamlessly onto a palate of silky, pristine fruit, crunchy acidity and savory spice. This is polished and approachable but also complex and focused.

90 POINT / Wine Spectator:

Shows plenty of gusto to the wild berry, sarsaparilla and spice flavors, with clove and bay leaf accents lingering. A juicy frame of tannins firms up on the finish. Grenache, Mataro and Shiraz. Drink now through 2033.
