Torbreck Cuvee Juveniles
Juveniles is a 'cult' Parisian wine bar run by eningmatic ex-pat Englishman, Tim Johnston. He's been in Paris more than twenty years and is a passionate promoter of the Rhone Valley and it's wines, particularly individualist, quality minded producers.
Torbreck founder David Powell hit it off with Tim over the years, eventually making a wine exclusively for his wine bar in 1999.
In keeping with Tim and David's love of Rhone Valley varietals and the fact that they are equally at home in the Barossa, the blend constitutes old-vine Grenache, Mataro (Mourvedre) and Shiraz and was elevaged entirely in stainless steel.

Nose:
A lively, intense aroma of red berry fruits, dark plum and spice.
A fresh, mid palate with a vivacity and energy that this blend always generates.
Ripe, juicy flavours of blackberry and cassis, spiced cherries, minerals and
succulent blueberry fruit all balanced with fresh acidity and a fine gentle tannin
structure
Palate:
Soft and supple, this wine is drinking superbly but as with its predecessors will
greatly recompense those who choose to give it a few years in the cellar.
