Lot #1005. Torbreck Shiraz The Factor 2002

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 99 RP.
"Remarkably, the 2002 The Factor may be even more awesome than the 2001. It boasts a blackberry liqueur-like intensity with chocolatey richness intermixed with blackberries, raspberries, and cherries. The unctuous texture, refreshing acidity, and sweet tannin frame-up this magnificent wine. It should drink well for 15+ years. Interestingly, the 2002 The Factor did not have the Cote Rotie-like roasted element found in the 2001, no doubt because 2002 was a much cooler growing year than the record heat experienced in 2001." Wine Advocate #155, Oct 2004
Provenance: The Maquereau Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $110
