Torbreck Run Rig(1997)
Our flagship wine, RunRig is a structured, muscular wine with phenomenal density, dry vintage port-like concentration, and magnificent notes of smoke, blackberries, cassis, leather and coffee. A hint of viognier's sweet marmalade character comes through as the wine sits in the glass. A true 'Vin de Garde' to reward those with the patience to cellar it.

- Saturated black-ruby. Liqueur-like aromas of cassis, graphite, bitter chocolate and charred oak. Like liquid silk in the mouth: superconcentrated, creamy and thick, with extraordinary sweetness that refuses to go sloppy. This may be more a meal substitute than an accompaniment to food, but it boasts incredible texture and chocolatey length. Has a firm tannic spine. (The Grateful Palate, Oxnard, CA)
