David Powell is a bit of legend. In the early 90's he was one of a number of talented wine makers in the Barossa Valley desperate to salvage some of the ancient vines that had escaped the 1980's vine pull scheme. He managed to secure some of these parcels and turn them into the very first Torbreck wines.
Juveniles is a 'cult' Parisian wine bar run by eningmatic ex-pat Englishman, Tim Johnston. He's been in Paris more than twenty years and is a passionate promoter of the Rhone Valley and it's wines, particularly individualist, quality minded producers. Dave Powell hit it off with Tim over the years, eventually making a wine exclusively for his wine bar in 1999. In keeping with Tim and Dave's love of Rhone Valley varietals and the fact that they are equally at home in the Barossa,the blend constitutes old-vine Grenache, Mataro (Mourvedre) and Shiraz and was elevaged entirely in stainless steel.
This is an absolute monster of a wine showing great potential for the future. Excellent value for money and a really, really classy introduction to the wines of David Powell.
