Torbreck Vintners The Struie 2015

Dark berry fruit and violet florals coat the palate with impressive concentration. Chinese five-spice and smoky minerality add complexity to the core of boysenberry and preserved cherry. Despite 15.5% alcohol, this shows remarkable elegance, with fine-grained tannins providing gentle support through a persistent, floral-tinged finish. The oak integration is seamless, never masking the fruit's natural power.
