Torbreck, The Gask Vintage:2008 Drink with food

Drink with food

As to what to do

finessed and salty finish

The palate is dry and certainly has mineral and energetic tension

This excellent effort is a big and built-to-age Bourgogne

Torbreck, The Gask Vintage:2008 Drink with foodThe Gask is a relatively new wine made since 2005 from 100% Shiraz sourced from a single vineyard in the Eden Valley planted in 1960. The 2008 The Gask gives a very deep garnet purple color and intense warm berry, kirsch, creme de cassis and wilted roses aromas plus a whiff of prunes. Very full bodied with plenty of ripe, rich fruit it has a nice backbone of crisp acid and medium level fine grained tannins supporting it through the long finish.
