This single vineyard sits right next to the winery on Roennfeldt Road and was planted back in 1994 using cuttings from Torbreck's RunRig grower sites—home to some of the oldest vine genetics in Australia. The team at Torbreck prides itself on their close collaboration with the dedicated growers of Barossa, who provide the fruit for their wines. Their approach is one of patience, allowing the vineyards to reach peak physiological ripeness before harvesting at the optimal moment for expressing the unique qualities of each block.
