2016 Descendant Torbreck Rhône-Nord it is absolutely beneficial for92% Shiraz, 8% Viognier James Sucklin 97 points: A wine that really sits at the heart of the Torbreck DNA with plenty of blackberries and plums. Graphite and dark chocolate, too. There's a beautifully exotic peppery and spicy edge here. The co fermented viognier really is exceptional. The length and build on the palate is phenomenal and the weight of tannin is convincing, all thick and velvety. A blend of 94% shiraz and 6% viognier. Drink or hold.
