酒名：2020 Torbreck Run Rig 澳洲 巴羅莎托貝克郎麗格紅酒
酒廠：Torbreck Vintners 托貝克酒莊
產區：澳洲巴羅莎谷 (Barossa Valley)
品種：97.5% Shiraz、2.5% Viognier
美國葡萄酒收藏家大衛‧索柯林所著的《葡萄酒投資》一書裡，全澳洲的「投資級葡萄酒」（Investment Grade Wines；簡稱IGW）的38款紅酒裡頭，托貝克酒莊（Torbreck Vintners）的酒釀就佔了四款：分別是The Factor、Descendant、Les Amis以及RunRig。其中，酒價最高的RunRig已列世界名酒之林，也成為現代澳洲經典名釀的代表作。
此外，漫畫《神之雫》也畫及本莊的初階酒款Woodcutter’s Shiraz，更讓托貝克大名耳熟能詳於酒迷之間。有鑑於Woodcutter’s Shiraz極為物超所值，使其成為名符其實的托貝克親善大使。托貝克酒莊雖以紅酒聞名，但其白酒表現也不凡，初階的Woodcutter’s Semillon內含部分比例的75歲老藤，口感圓潤帶有蜜香，尾韻則顯現礦物質風韻，是搭餐廣度極佳的日常良伴。本莊的葡萄園管理接近有機；釀酒時，則盡量採取無為而治，少加干預的原則。

Tasting the RunRig beside the Descendant is always a wise move, in order to gain some contextual understanding of how they are similar and, perhaps more importantly, how they differ. This 2020 RunRig was sourced from six different vineyards across Barossa (in Lyndoch, Rowland Flat, Moppa, Ebenezer, Light Pass and Greenock) and includes a 2% "dosage" (as winemaker Ian Hongell described it) of Viognier. Matured for 30 months in a combination of new French oak (50%) and second and third fill barrels, the wine rests on its lees for that time. The lower percentage of Viognier here is a seductive and effective thing, adding just enough slick and polish to make this the sybaritic wine that it is, but little enough to allow the grunt, grit and muscle of the Shiraz from all those glorious locations to shine through. Despite the very long time in oak, the wine is balanced and excellent, big in almost every possible way but with an undeniable sense of class and length of flavor. Executed with detail and precision, this wine is clearly defined in its expression of house style.
