Tasting Notes
Maturation
18 months on fine lees, 8% new French oak.
Palate
There’s depth & texture in the
mid palate, with some of the aromatic prettiness of 2017.
Vinification
2-10t open fermenters, two-week ferments,
punchdown/pumpovers twice daily.
Vintage Notes
The 2023 Head Red Shiraz was produced from a La Nina weather affected year.
The cool/humid conditions gave the vines time to produce fruit (particularly shiraz)
that has both complex tannins & garrigue flavours.
Region Notes
A rather large jigsaw puzzle of 15 very unique Barossa vineyards are used for
HEAD RED Shiraz. They mostly come from the higher altitude, rocky, cooler sites
of the Eden Valley. In the winery there is very little ‘fancy’ winemaking, allowing
the vintage and Barossa character to show clearly.
