winemaker's notes:

"Amazingly complex for its price, this lusty, appealing, hedonist’s dream is worth buying by the case..."
-Wine Advocate

"This practically screams syrah..."
-International Wine Cellar

The name Woodcutters stems from when David Powell spent several years working in the Scottish Highlands as a lumberjack or woodcutter in the Torbreck forest.

The Woodcutters Red, like all Torbreck wines, sources fruit from hand harvested and hand tended, low yielding vines. It is fermented and gently pressed, then aged for 12 months in large format seasoned barrels and foudres.

A Customer - Hong Kong
The wine is powerful and the aroma is good. Ready to drink once open. Improve while airing. The deep purple color wine give you a smooth down the throat and good after taste.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.

Organically grown grapes
