Torbreck Library Wines
BY NEAL MARTIN |
Dave Powell is a legendary Barossa winemaker. I have not seen the former lumberjack for a long time but remember him as a force of nature with enough energy to supply the entire Barossa. Powell founded Torbreck Vintners back in 1994, but then lost financial control of the winery and ended up acrimoniously parting ways with its new owner in 2013, with Craig Isbel taking over winemaking duties. I used to regularly taste Torbreck’s new releases and was given the opportunity to taste mature bottles at a recent portfolio tasting by their UK importer, J.E. Fells & Co. I was intrigued to see how these fêted wines are maturing.
